SunPatiens Collection -
Bred by the world beating Sakata of Japan, this new type of impatiens has
just been launched on to the world markets. Plants are easy to look after
and perform superbly in the garden, even thriving in partially shaded
positions. SunPatiens are also very tolerant of extremes of heat. The long
lasting pink, orange, red and white flowers are large and impressive and
keep their colour for longer in strong sun.

Photos suggest double blooms.
