IMPATIENS FLOWERS

This shade-loving favorite is probably best known for being mispronounced (there's no "t"!). They can tolerate part sun and work well in hanging baskets, containers, and window boxes. But to really show them off right, plant them as borders in your favorite shady bed.

When they bloom: Spring to fall

These shade-loving annuals brighten up dark corners of the yard. Even better? They're reliable non-stop bloomers until frost, and they work equally well in beds, planters or hanging pots.
