How to care for newly bought Impatiens

1. Lighting

After you buy the Impatiens home, you can expose it to a certain degree of diffuse light every day to slowly adapt to the intensity of light. Be careful not to exceed four hours, and avoid direct sunlight, otherwise you will get burned. Keep it in a cool and ventilated place for the rest of the time.

2. Temperature

Suitable temperature can help Impatiens adapt to the new environment faster. So we should control the temperature between 6 and 26 degrees, which is the most suitable temperature for its growth.

3. Watering

The amount of watering must be controlled, and do not water too much, because the newly purchased Impatiens has just arrived at the new environment and has not yet fully adapted. The plant is fragile and has poor ability to absorb water. If you water too much, water will easily accumulate and cause root rot.

4. Fertilization

Impatiens does not require much fertilizer, so do not fertilize the newly purchased Impatiens. It has not yet adapted to the new environment. Applying fertilizer at this time will not only fail to promote growth, but will burn the roots and have a counterproductive effect.
