Impatiens namchabarwensis - Blue Diamond Impatiens
Rare True-Blue Blooms for Shade
To die for! This most tantalizing perennial Impatiens bears masses of bright ultramarine blue blooms. To 1.5" across and highlighted by a yellow throat, the flowers are displayed in abundance on a multi-branched 2'x2' plant. The color seems to change with temperature and exposure - sometimes it's REALLY TRULY BLUE and other times it's a deep purple, but it's always exquisite. Discovered in 2003 growing in a limited area in the Namcha Barwa Canyon* in Tibet at an elevation of 3,000'. Where it's not perennially hardy, it should self-sow readily for new plants next season. Easy to grow in rich soil. Thrives in containers! *A canyon that's not only the deepest canyon in the world - twice as deep as the Grand Canyon - but is also an area that's been studied only since 1994. Can you say WOW? Note: Generally, species Impatiens prefer cool Summer climates with little frost, and suffer in areas with too much heat and humidity!

We guarantee the perishable items we sell to be in good, viable condition when we sell them. Perishable items include, but are not limited to, garlic bulbs, flower bulbs, seed potatoes, onion sets & transplants, potted or bare root trees, vegetable crowns, etc. If your perishable item arrives in substandard condition, take photographs and please contact us within 3 days of the purchase date (or delivery date) and we will provide you with a refund of the purchase price (excluding shipping costs), or a replacement. Accordingly, we urge you to open any boxes marked as ""Perishable"" immediately upon receiving them and inspect the shipment thoroughly (do not crack open heads of garlic, we do not accept claims on cracked garlic). Because some perishable items can deteriorate very quickly, we cannot accept any claims beyond the 3-day time frame as it becomes too difficult to determine if these items were delivered in substandard condition, or if they turned into such substandard condition because of having been improperly cared for or stored once delivered.
