Bred to provide thick coverage, the Sunpatiens® Kissing Cousins Mix Impatiens produces lush green foliage, which contrasts its vivid blooms.

Sunpatiens® Kissing Cousins Mix Impatiens Care
The Sunpatiens® Kissing Cousins Mix Impatiens is happy whether planted in full sun or partial shade. It prefers a fertile and moist, yet free-draining soil. To encourage continuous flowers, you can fertilize it with a liquid feed every 2 weeks from early summer onwards. Water frequently and increase irrigation as the temperature rises over the summer. Pruning is often unnecessary, but you can lightly prune back leggy growth throughout the season to encourage new growth and flowers.
Being tender, impatiens are typically grown as annual plants but can be grown as perennials in southern climates. However, outside of zones 10 and 11, you would have to bring them indoors to overwinter.
Sunpatiens® Kissing Cousins Mix Impatiens Spacing
The Sunpatiens® Kissing Cousins Mix Impatiens can grow to 14 to 28 inches tall and 14 to 24 inches wide. Space plants from 14 to 22 inches apart depending on how close you would like them to knit together when fully grown.

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.
