Dazzler® Punch Impatiens

PanAmerican Seed’s [2016 F1 Impatiens catalog](https://www.panamseed.com/documents/catalogs/14520_PASKieft_2016Catalog-LowRes.pdf) includes Dazzler® Punch in the Dazzler® series and describes the series as uniform, manageable, and flowering freely until frost. Iowa State Extension’s [Impatiens guide](https://yardandgarden.extension.iastate.edu/how-to/growing-impatiens-home-garden) recommends partial shade for Impatiens walleriana and moist, well-drained soil. ## Plant profile Dazzler® Punch is a named F1 Impatiens walleriana selection. PanAmerican Seed lists the Dazzler® series at 9–11 inches high by 13–15 inches wide, with matched colors and plants that fill in quickly. The catalog lists the series for packs, four-inch pots, and baskets. ## Growing Choose partial shade, such as filtered light or morning sun followed by afternoon shade. Iowa State notes that heavier shade may make plants taller and reduce flowering. Use the series in seasonal beds, containers, or hanging baskets. ## Maintenance Keep garden beds evenly moist during dry weather. Check container-grown plants frequently and water when the soil surface is dry. Impatiens walleriana is among the species affected by downy mildew; [Wisconsin Extension’s guide](https://hort.extension.wisc.edu/articles/impatiens-downy-mildew/) explains symptoms and advises spacing for airflow and avoiding overhead irrigation.
