Gloria Rose Combination

Soft rose‑pink double impatiens steal the show in the Gloria Rose Combination, blooming like miniature bouquets from late spring until frost. Lacy Diamond Frost® euphorbia threads airy white accents through the mound, while Hippo® Rose polka‑dot plant adds broad leaves splashed with deep‑pink flecks that echo the flowers. All three thrive in morning light and afternoon shade, reaching 10–20 inches tall and up to two feet across—ideal for brightening patios, north‑facing porches, or woodland edges where sun lovers falter. The layers of soothing color will keep shady spaces lively for months.

Diamond Frost contributes impressive heat and drought tolerance along with deer resistance, and it never needs deadheading. Rockapulco® Rose impatiens offer strong downy‑mildew resistance and maintain a tidy mounded form without trimming. Hippo® Rose, a vigorous Hypoestes, supplies bold foliage interest long after many annuals fade and can even serve as a houseplant. Use this trio to pack hanging baskets, tuck into hosta borders, edge woodland paths, or cluster in mixed shade containers for an effortless, romantic look.

Gloria Rose Combination Care

Fill a 12‑inch pot with a rich, well‑drained potting mix, then transplant the kit after danger of frost has passed. Place where the planting receives filtered light or four hours of early sun; intense midday rays bleach the polka‑dot leaves. Keep soil evenly moist—impatiens wilt quickly when dry—yet avoid water‑logging by allowing excess to drain. Feed every other week with a balanced, water‑soluble fertilizer to power continuous flowering; no deadheading is required, but a light mid‑summer pinch will refresh shape if desired.

This combination is grown as a warm‑season annual in zones 3‑9, lasting until the first hard frost outdoors. Hippo® Rose overwinters easily as a houseplant, extending the display through winter with bright indirect light and reduced watering. In frost‑free zones 10–11, all components can be overwintered outside, though impatiens may slow during cooler months.

Gloria Rose Combination Spacing

One kit fills a 12‑inch hanging basket or patio bowl—alternate the six plants around the rim of the pot for balanced color. In rectangular window boxes, repeat the grouping every 14 inches. For shady border plantings, allow 18 inches between kits so the mounds can knit into a seamless carpet of pink, white, and speckled green.
