Care Tips (Beginner-Friendly) Light Prefers partial shade with morning sun and afternoon protection. In Hong Kong, east-facing balconies work best; tolerates more sun than standard impatiens but avoid intense afternoon rays to prevent wilting.
Soil Use loose, well-draining potting mix rich in organic matter (add compost or peat). Slightly acidic to neutral pH is ideal.
Watering Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged water when top 2-3 cm feels dry. Heavy drinker in heat; daily watering may be needed in summer.
Fertilizer Apply diluted balanced or bloom-boosting liquid fertilizer every 2-4 weeks during growing season. Reduce in cooler months.
