Impatiens range from 8 inches to 2 feet tall. Many cultivars will be taller than descriptions in catalogs in hot southern summers. Heat-tolerant cultivars will remain more compact. Flowers are from 1 to 2 inches across.
Impatiens are a very popular flowering plant that can do well indoors or outdoors. Because of its beautiful blooms, it is a popular plant for hanging baskets. Some gardeners like to put these out on the porch or patio during the warmer months and then bring them inside during the winter.
