Sun gardeners rejoice! Enjoy the same vibrant colored blooms that used to be limited to shade gardens through Sunpatiens, designed to withstand all day sun or shade. 'Compact Purple' provides magenta-colored, single-petaled flowers that bloom from late spring right up until freeze. A much larger plant than "regular" impatiens, Sunpatiens can range from 16 to 30 inches tall, and may spread up to two feet wide. This variety does need to be watered and fertilized regularly, but all that TLC will be rewarded with lush foliage and beautiful color all summer long.
