Impatiens New Guinea Impatiens hawkerii Roller Coaster 'Tangy Taffy' - New Guinea Impatiens from Sedan Floral

New Guinea Impatiens

The New Guinea Roller Coaster Tangy Taffy grows lots of vibrant frilly flowers that are a standout in the shade garden.  Roller Coaster Tangy Taffy has double the petals of a normal New Guinea Impatiens and the petals are ruffled.  The mounding growth habit and brilliant orange blooms makes this a fantastic choice for containers, and shade gardens! The blooms are approximately 2-3” wide amongst the foliage on thick stems that bloom right up until the frost. These New Guinea Roller Coaster Impatiens are desired most for their wide selection of bright, ever-blooming colors, shade tolerance and mounding growth habit for containers and shade gardens. This is a great annual for Spring, Mother’s Day, Summer, and Fall. They mature to about 12-18” tall and about 12-18” wide.

& Maintenance Tips

The New Guinea Roller Coaster Impatiens prefer shade but can handle some sun. They grow best in fertile, moist soil. Trimming back dead blossoms encourages new blooms. Please remember, these beauties may need a little extra TLC and more consistent watering, especially if in containers!
