I am not a fan of creosote but that is a beautiful scene.

sck- that is a pretty scene. I had given up on impatiens several years ago when they all got some disease, I recall it was something that kind of went nationwide. The local murseries now sell very few. Yours look just fine-maybe I will try them again.

Very pretty! I love all the colorful blooms! I've given up on impatiens, too. Mine never got full and beautiful like yours, but I probably didn't keep them watered enough!

Very beautiful! I have impatiens -in my garden for the first time in several years. They have them in our nurseries. They are thriving again.

Does anyone know if the threat of the impatiens disease/fungus is resolved? I know not all nurseries stopped selling them and I've switched over to begonias for the past few years. It would be nice to grow some impatiens again.

I have impatiens in my yard this year and they are doing fine.

Good to know. Since I have a shady yard, I used to do all impatiens with some seed-sown Browallia thrown in. I do like Begonias but it would be nice to mix it up with some impatiens. I think this is my 3rd or 4th year not growing them.

I planted begonias this year. They are not doing well. Maybe because I let hubby plant them?? But the impatiens he planted are thriving.

Nice to hear that impatiens are thriving. Er - sorry about the begonias?
My begonias generally do okay if the chipmunks don't dig them up. They like digging up new stuff so I employ a big jar of cayenne pepper to discourage them. Sometimes it works.
