MORGAN HILL, CA – Sakata Seed America is releasing two new SunPatiens® Guides: New Landscapers’ Guide to SunPatiens & SunPatiens Floating Garden Guide.
Landscapers have been using Sakata’s hybrid impatiens series for differing opportunities and challenges. With that in mind, the company developed Landscapers’ Guide to SunPatiens, a comprehensive how-to for landscapers, to help them achieve greater success with the series.
Sakata has also developed a how-to guide for making beautiful SunPatiens Floating Gardens. According to a press release, major theme parks, botanic gardens and locations across the U.S. have successfully utilized SunPatiens in their Floating Gardens. The new SunPatiens Floating Garden Guide helps landscapers and home gardeners create their own Floating Gardens.
SunPatiens is the first impatiens series to thrive in full sun and shade as well as transitioning easily through the seasons while maintaining vibrant color and continuous coverage. Their growing popularity can be attributed to four main characteristics:
- Full-sun shade versatility
- Continuous, non-stop blooming from spring through fall
- Carefree, low-maintenance plants (low fertilizer requirements, self-cleaning)
- Strong insect and disease resistance (not impacted by downy mildew)
Both of the new guides can be downloaded from Sakata’s website.
