Unwins Impatiens ‘Beacon Mixed’ Seeds (Busy Lizzie) (30 Seeds)

Bring long-lasting colour to shaded and sheltered spaces with Unwins Impatiens ‘Beacon Mixed’ (Impatiens walleriana), also known as Busy Lizzie. This vibrant mix produces masses of bright blooms that are perfect for adding drama to patio containers, window boxes, and bedding displays throughout summer.

A major advantage of the ‘Beacon’ series is its strong downy mildew resistance, making it far more reliable than older impatiens varieties that can struggle in damp conditions.
