Shade Plant:New Guinea Impatiens Like their more common cousins, New Guinea Impatiens provide hard-to-find brilliant colors for shade. And it’s not just the flowers. The foliage is often brilliantly, exotically colorful as well. Good for con-tainers and beds, low maintenance.

General Directions for all Plantings: For lush foliage and bountiful blooms, plant with a slow release fertilizer and fertilize twice a month for ground plants and weekly for potted plants. For flowering plants, use a fertilizer higher in phosphates (the middle number) to produce abundant flowers.
