How to grow Super Elfin Mix Impatiens seeds

Choose Your Planting Method

• Indoors: Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost. Impatiens need warmth and light to germinate.
• Outdoors: Outdoors: Direct sowing is not recommended; transplant after nights stay above 50°F (10°C).

Prepare Your Materials

• Seed-starting trays or pots (if indoors)
• Well-draining potting mix
• Clear plastic wrap or a humidity dome
• Optional: seedling heat mat
• Spray bottle for misting

Sowing the Seeds

• Sow on the surface of moist seed-starting mix — do not cover or bury the seed; light aids germination
• Press gently for good soil contact and mist lightly

Provide the Right Conditions

• Light: Bright, indirect light (over 10 foot-candles aids germination); keep covered trays out of direct sun
• Temperature: 72-76°F (22-24°C)
• Humidity: Cover with a dome or plastic to hold humidity; vent daily to prevent mold

Germination

• Radicles emerge in 3-5 days under ideal conditions; home germination typically takes 2-3 weeks
• Keep the medium consistently moist but not waterlogged

Transplanting

• Transplant after nights stay reliably above 50°F (10°C)
• Space plants 8-10 inches apart

Care Tips

• Sun: Shade to partial shade — the classic shade bedding plant
• Water: Keep soil evenly moist; impatiens wilt quickly when dry
• Fertilizer: Feed lightly every 2-3 weeks with balanced fertilizer
• No deadheading needed — spent flowers drop on their own

Bloom Time:

Late spring through first frost.
