Solarscape® XL Lilac Spark Interspecific Impatiens

Solarscape® XL Lilac Spark is a mounded interspecific impatiens with large lilac flowers centered in rose. PanAmerican Seed lists an 11–13-inch height, an 18–20-inch width, and flowering from spring through late summer for this exact selection. ## Planting and seasonal display The XL selection is described as averaging about 20% larger than standard Solarscape; use its own 11–13-inch by 18–20-inch range when planning spacing. PanAmerican lists partial sun to sun and use in beds and containers, so it can provide seasonal color in a planted bed or patio container. The mounded habit keeps the display rounded, while the rose eye contrasts with the lilac petals. The breeder lists spring, late spring, summer and late summer flowering, and identifies the seed product with cultivar code PAS1498986. Keep the full XL and Lilac Spark name when sourcing to distinguish it from other colors and the standard series. ## Maintenance Ball Seed classifies water need as medium and lists this selection as low maintenance. Check moisture in beds and containers as weather and pot volume change; “medium” is a broad planning category, not a fixed watering schedule.
