That impatiens did not over winter. The violet and the ivy did. I’m trying to remember if I’ve ever tried overwintering a NG impatiens. I don’t think so.
I have overwintered canna lilies and Angel Wing begonias with decent success. I got 2 extra seasons out of the lily, and 3 extra seasons out of the begonia. Also I had success with heliotrope once, and got an extra season from it. That’s been hard to find and I got 2 starters this Spring, so I’m hoping (fingers crossed) that I have some luck with those plants inside this winter. I don’t have a lot of space, so I will have to pick the best and healthiest plants I have to bring indoors.
Oh, sorry, I misunderstood. But I do have a couple cannas I’d like to give a shot (with overwintering).
I’ll do some research later and see if the impatiens would be practical. They SEEM tailor made...
It appears the answer to “Can impatiens be overwintered?” is “Yes”, with some qualifications, such as the New Guinea type requiring quite cool temperatures. That’s not practical for me!
