Description: Balsam Flower Seeds, ‘Tom Thumb Mix’, Impatiens balsamina, FREE SHIPPING Balsam ‘Tom Thumb Mix’ is a dwarf mix, growing to 12 to 16 inches tall. A shade lover, it will grow in full to part sun as well. Plants bloom all summer long and do best in rich, well drained soil. Balsams reseed readily. It grows in full to part sun, with moderate to moist conditions in rich and well-drained soils. It is effectively used in beds and borders as well as containers. Attracts bumble bees. Sowing: Direct sow in spring, pressing the seed lightly into the surface of the soil; water carefully to avoid disturbing the seed, and keep consistently moist until germination, which should occur within 7-10 days. To start Impatiens Balsamina seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before frost, sow the seed on the surface of the soil in a flat; keep it lightly moist until germination. Transplant seedlings outdoors after the last frost or when they can safely be handled. Growing: This plant tolerates some drought, but produces the best blossoms in consistently moist, rich soil. It also adapts well to clay soil. Pinch back the stems of young plants to encourage bushiness and branching growth. Plants grown from seed outdoors will bloom in mid to late summer, while plants started indoors may bloom in early summer; they will bloom until frost. Deadhead for the most blooms. This plant will self-sow readily. It makes a good choice for containers or as a border plant, and attracts bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds.
