Sonic® Light Lavender Impatiens

Sonic® Light Lavender New Guinea Impatiens is a vegetatively propagated selection of Impatiens hawkeri in Syngenta Flowers’ Sonic series. Its pale lavender-to-violet flowers suit part-shade containers, hanging baskets, and landscape plantings. Syngenta identifies the selection by product code 70003739 and lists its color as purple, lavender, and violet. The product page gives a garden height and width of 10 to 14 inches; the Sonic culture guide lists height at 12 to 14 inches and width at 10 to 14 inches. Keep both published size profiles in mind when planning space. The culture guide describes a mounded habit and lists packs, containers, hanging baskets, landscapes, patio pots, and combinations among its uses. Grow it in part shade and moist, well-drained soil with organic matter. Keep the root zone evenly moist, especially in hanging baskets and small pots. This tropical impatiens is commonly grown as seasonal bedding where frost occurs. ## Maintenance Water when the soil surface begins to dry, while avoiding standing water around the roots. Remove spent flowers and damaged leaves as needed, and check regularly for pests or leaf disease. Protect from frost or grow seasonally in cold-winter climates.
