Little Double Impatients


Little Double Impatients

My two little impatients have been waiting so patient for summer. Began blooming just the other day in the greenhouse.

Thanks PP. I'm hoping they take over the shady side of one bed, with some Iberis.

So this is what Double imps look like, very very nice.. I love it when the Buzy Lizzie's go to seed and you touch them and the pod Explodes :)

I've only had them once before and they got too cold and never went to seed. I am hoping these perform better. I dont use that old cold bed anymore. :-) I like the doubles similarity to mini roses.

If you liked this plant with just one double flower you should see the lovely lavender one I had a few years ago! I loved it! You'd love it, too! I've posted a picture or two of it in my photos. This flower is also very nice! I'd like to get some more double Busy Lizzies but haven't seen any in the shops around here in years.

LOL...GG! I was doubting them too......LOL!

Sounds like a lovely one Balcony. I have only seen a few colors at only a few greenhouses here as well. I get them very early before shoppers know what they are looking at. :-) Better selection.
