SunPatiens have become my favorite annual for so many of the reasons you specified. I like that they look good after a rain as well. Thanks for all the great information you provide and for sharing your beautiful gardens.
Great info Heidi! I fertilized mine and it took weeks before it started to bloom again and I didn't know what I did wrong! Your gardens are amazing especially your large shade/part shade bed with all those Hostas! Love it!!! 😀😀😀
Such great info here!! As someone who forgets to fertilize my annuals from time to time, this is so good to know! I love this shade of sunpatiens and I loved the red ones you should in the most recent tour at your shop too. 😍
They are so beautiful. Thanks for sharing. I tried 3 of them this year in my shade garden; they are the only annuals there but ohhh, the lovely colors, helping out the Heucheras. They do complain, mope and drupe if they are thirsty, big time! 🥰💚 I love the border look, it’s Gorgeous!! I’ll try that next season. 🥰💚
Hello! I understand this is a busy time of year for you! I have been watching all the new videos that have been posted this year :] Maybe you can get to my question at some point.. i struggled with some plants last year and spent alot of money... How did you make your soil workable before planting around those trees? Did you dump alot of topsoil and amend with compost as you planted possibly? I have been struggling with my native clay soil and LOTS of tree roots huge rocks, whatever else... i spent alot of money just to be disappointed last year and would like to do alot better this year. Thankyou so much for all the videos, youre great :) And of course...This is beautiful ❤️ 😊 Also.. also.. happy late birthday 🎉
This hillside was free of trees when we started to planting the perennials. We then planted the trees. We have added new plants in over the years and have had to work around the roots or cut them with a spade. The soil we plant in is really light and fluffy, we do not have any clay in our yard ( thank goodness). You could bring in some top soil to plant into and then let the roots work their way into the clay.
In some areas yes. If you have an area that is hard to fertilizer, i recommend Sunpatiens as they do not like fertilizer. They will not fill out as much as Vista Petunias though, so if you are looking to cover alot of ground and can fertilize then petunias.

Beautiful!!!!!
Thank you!!
Gorgeous! Do the deer and rabbits eat these? Sometimes I plant a nice salad bar for them :)
I have the same problem deer and rabbits. Everything I like they like too. Lol
These are not deer resistant. If you watch my Northern Michigan garden videos I talk and show the deer damage. Some but not bad.

How close together do you plant them? Beautiful!
These are planted about 12" apart
I had mine planted 24” apart and within about 5 months they looked like this.
What do you do with them in the winter time?
These are annuals so they taken out in the Fall
How are you? Got a beautiful plants I have a question what brand is thank you
These are Sunpatiens
Hello Hello again 🥰 Would they be okay to grow off property where I wont be able to water and be rain dependent? Can they take any type of drought?
They really do need regular watering. The will wilt if they dont get enough water.
You could plant them in a Aquapot.
Hello. Would you also forego tossing in Biotone at the time of planting Sunpatiens? Thanks for your help.
We do not use biotone. I would say you could use a little.
@@gardencrossings ok thanks so much! :)
Most soils are rich enough that BIOTONE is not regularly needed.
Do you prefer these over supertunias?
In some areas yes. If you have an area that is hard to fertilizer, i recommend Sunpatiens as they do not like fertilizer. They will not fill out as much as Vista Petunias though, so if you are looking to cover alot of ground and can fertilize then petunias.
Beautiful
