The Infinity® Salmon Impatiens is a wonderful annual plant for adding some color to shaded areas. It blooms non-stop from spring until winter and produces an abundance of coral-salmon flowers with little fuss. It is not just the flowers of the Impatiens hawkeri that are attractive, as its pointed, dark green leaves are striking in their own right. With a mounding habit, the Infinity® Salmon Impatiens remains compact and is a versatile plant for any garden.
This annual is easy to grow and will continue to bloom even without deadheading. Perfect for bedding in beds and borders, the Infinity® Salmon Impatiens is also ideal for growing in a container or hanging basket. Even though it thrives in shade, it can also tolerate the heat and if wilted, will often bounce back with a thorough watering. Also known as the New Guinea Impatiens, there’s no prize for guessing where this stunning annual hails from.
Infinity® Salmon Impatiens Care
The Infinity® Salmon Impatiens thrives when grown in partial to full shade. However, it can cope with more sun if watered more frequently. It prefers moist, but free-draining soil and benefits from a slow-release or liquid fertilizer to keep it flowering all season long. Even though this plant does not need deadheading, you can shorten any leggy stems with a pair of clean and sharp scissors to promote more bushy growth. Regular watering is required to keep the soil moist, and mulching around the base of the plant will help prevent moisture loss during the summer months.
New Guinea Impatiens tend to be grown as annuals. However, they are perennial in zones 10 to 11. In colder areas, plants can be brought to a bright spot indoors to overwinter.
Infinity® Salmon Impatiens Spacing
The Infinity® Salmon Impatiens grows to 10 to 14 inches high and around 6 to 8 inches wide. When planting in a group, a spacing of 6 to 8 inches between plants will provide a solid block of color when they bloom.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
