Imara® XDR Rosy Mix Impatiens

Imara® XDR Rosy Mix is a compact, mounding annual impatiens for shaded beds and containers, with flowering listed for late spring and summer. [Syngenta’s exact product page](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/ams/product/flower/70098820) identifies code 70098820 and lists 10–12-inch height and width, full or part shade, and hardiness zones 9a–11a. ## Placement Use this rounded mound along the front of a shade border or in a container planting. [Iowa State’s impatiens guidance](https://yardandgarden.extension.iastate.edu/how-to/growing-impatiens-home-garden) recommends partial shade and moist, well-drained soil; it describes I. walleriana as a bedding plant for beds, containers, and hanging baskets. Heavy shade is tolerated, though flowers may be less abundant. ## Growing notes Syngenta describes the Imara XDR line as having a high degree of resistance to downy mildew, not immunity. The exact product page lists flowering from late spring through summer and gives a compact 10–12-inch garden profile. Its name identifies a Rosy Mix, without specifying component colors. ## Maintenance Keep the root zone evenly moist while allowing excess water to drain. Check containers during warm or dry weather, since pots can dry faster than garden beds. Water when the soil begins to dry and avoid leaving the plant in standing water.
