Description: The white-flowered Impatiens glandulifera, a variety of the Himalayan balsam, is an annual plant known for its stunning and delicate white blossoms. This fast-growing species can reach impressive heights of 6 to 10 feet (1.8 to 3 meters) and features trumpet or slipper-shaped flowers with five petals. Its vibrant white flowers stand out in contrast to its lush green foliage, making it an attractive ornamental plant in gardens. Annual Germination To germinate Impatiens glandulifera white seeds, follow these steps: Fill a seed tray or small pots with a well-draining potting mix, leaving a small gap at the top. Sow the seeds on the soil surface, spacing them evenly. Gently press the seeds down, but do not cover them with soil, as they require light for germination. Mist the soil with water to keep it consistently moist, but avoid overwatering, as this can lead to rot. Place the tray or pots in a warm location with indirect sunlight. The seeds typically germinate within 1-3 weeks. Once seedlings have developed several leaves and are sturdy enough to handle, transplant them to their final growing location, ensuring proper spacing for mature plants, typically around 12 to 18 inches apart. Continue to provide the necessary care, including regular watering, as the plants mature.
