SunPatiens Compact White
Best low-maintenance annual for sun-drenched containers and garden beds.
These are the rare impatiens that actually thrive in the heat of full sun without succumbing to the mildew that plagues traditional varieties. You trade the delicate, shade-only fragility of old-school blooms for a rugged, season-long performer that stays tidy in containers and keeps flowering until the first frost.
