Syngenta lists Imara® XDR Proformula Mix as product 70099072 in the Imara® XDR series, with the botanical name *Impatiens walleriana*. Its product page specifies a compact, mounding plant for full to part shade, with flowering from late spring through summer and a high degree of downy-mildew resistance; that is resistance, not immunity.
## Plant profile
The current product page lists 10–12 inches for both garden height and width, recommends packs and pots, and gives hardiness zones 9a–11a. It describes compact branching for high-density production and reliable landscape flowering. The product name identifies a mix, but the product record does not enumerate this selection’s flower-color components, so no individual colors are inferred. [Syngenta Flowers’ exact product record](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/ams/product/flower/70099072).
## Growing conditions
The species-level [NC State Extension profile](https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/impatiens-walleriana/) recommends part shade to full shade and moist, well-drained soil supplemented with organic matter. It notes that partly sunny sites can work with adequate water, while hot, dry spells call for extra watering. The profile also advises avoiding overwatering and gives a slightly acidic soil preference.
## Seasonal interest and use
The exact product listing gives late spring and summer as flowering times. NC State describes the species in containers, hanging baskets, mass plantings along shady borders, beneath trees, and in woodland settings. It notes that this tropical perennial is often grown as an annual.
## Maintenance
Keep the soil moist but well-drained; provide extra water in partly sunny locations and hot, dry weather, and avoid waterlogging. If growth becomes leggy in late summer, trim it back to encourage fresh blooms.
