Balsam (Impatiens Balsamina) - A wonderful old-fashioned favorite for the flower garden. Grown from Balsam seeds, this favorite will continuously bloom from early summer right up until the first frost of fall. The stems are loaded with a mix of of colors: rose, salmon, white, scarlet, and violet. These Impatiens Balsamina flowers are formed on clean, almost transparent stems with just the right amount of foliage to make a very attractive addition to any flower garden.

Growing Balsam from seed can be done right into the garden after frost season has passed. Balsam germinates quickly in just 10 - 14 days, and it is not too fussy about soil, but a sandy loam works very well. Balsam is one of the few flowers, planted from flower seeds, that can do well in sun or shade as long as it has plenty of moisture. Balsam is a liberal self-slower. After one growing season, it generally reappears from self-sown flower seeds. Balsam will grow rapidly and begin blooming when only a few inches tall and continue to flower until it is as high as 12 - 18 inches. For an earlier start, sow Balsam seeds indoors 6 - 8 weeks before the last spring frost. Do not cover the flower seeds with soil, as they need light to germinate. Until the seeds germinate, cover the seed trays with clear plastic to maintain high humidity. Water from below to prevent damping off, and transplant the Balsam seedlings outdoors, spacing them 12 - 18 inches apart.

Impatiens (Impatiens Walleriana Baby Carmine) - What would we do without Impatiens to add interest and color to the shady areas or our gardens? This carmine Impatiens, grown from flower seed, is probably one of the most sought after flowers in the United States. They are a tender perennial that is usually treated as an annual. This dwarf Impatiens plant has dark green, glossy, narrow 1 - 3 inch leaves on light green stems. The plants are 8 -10 inches tall and wide. The ease of germination and culture makes them a great plant to grow. They are perfect for either containers or directly in the landscape. When sowing dwarf Impatiens seeds, it takes about 10 weeks to have blooms.

Dwarf Impatiens flowers are early bloomers with a medium growing intensity. They are perfect in planters and hanging baskets. In full or partial shade gardens, Impatiens grow more colorfully than most any other flower. Impatiens are very carefree and need less water when they are grown in shade.

Sow Impatiens seeds indoors, 8 - 10 weeks before the end of frost season. Use starter trays and good starter soil. Sow flower seeds into the cells, press into soil but do not cover. Impatiens seeds need light to germinate. Keep the seed continuously moist. Transplant the Impatiens seedlings into containers or the garden 8 - 12 inches apart after all danger of frost. You may also sow Impatiens seeds directly into the soil after the threat of frost has passed. This will still give you nice flowers around mid summer and in to the fall.
