Breeding method

Temperature and light

The suitable temperature for the growth of African Impatiens is about 15 ℃ - 25 ℃, and the indoor overwintering temperature should not be lower than 12 ℃. Sufficient light should be given, but avoid exposure to the hot sun. It is required to be cool in summer, with appropriate shade and ventilation

Moisture

African Impatiens likes to be wet. While often keeping the basin soil moist, we should also pay attention to avoid ponding, otherwise it is easy to cause the death of plants by waterlogging. Maintain appropriate air humidity, generally about 70% - 90%. In dry weather in summer and autumn, spray water on the leaf surface frequently

Soil

African Impatiens is suitable to be cultivated in sandy loam with fertile, loose and good drainage

Precautions

Do a good job in the prevention and control of diseases and pests to ensure the healthy growth of plants. Common diseases include leaf spot and stem rot, which can be controlled by spraying 1000 times of 50% carbendazim wettable powder. The insect pest is mainly aphid, and 3000 times of 10% insecticide emulsion should be sprayed in time
