The bold and colorful flowers of the SunPatiens® Compact Deep Red Impatiens make a striking addition to a landscape. This hybrid cultivar offers up the brightly colored, showy blooms Impatiens are known for, but with the ability to handle more sunlight for more flexible placement options. The overlapping petals on these Impatiens are a deep, saturated red hue contrasted by the dark green foliage. This annual will continue to bloom from planting until frost.
Feature the SunPatiens® Compact Deep Red Impatiens in landscapes or containers. As a medium-height plant, this variety will reach 14 to 32 inches tall, so feature it in the middle of plantings or in front of tall plants. The bold blooms look great as part of a group planting in a landscape. Use these Impatiens in a container to add a burst of color to a tabletop or fill out a combination planting.
SunPatiens® Compact Deep Red Impatiens Care
Plant the SunPatiens® Compact Deep Red Impatiens in part to full sun. This variety can handle at least 4 to 6 hours of direct sunlight. This plant still has increased water needs and prefers somewhat damp soil like other varieties of Impatiens. Increased light can dry the soil out more quickly, so be mindful of the amount of light the plant receives and water when the top inch of soil dries out. Use slightly acidic, rich soil that promotes drainage. Feed the plant using a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer every other week.
Impatiens can overwinter indoors. Cut the plants back and place them in a window that receives bright light. Monitor the soil and water when the top couple of inches feel dry.
SunPatiens® Compact Deep Red Impatiens Spacing
The SunPatiens® Compact Deep Red Impatiens grows 14 to 32 inches tall and spreads 24 to 36 inches. Plants can be spaced 12 to 24 inches apart to create a full planting. A 10- to 12-inch container can accommodate 3 to 4 Impatiens.

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.
