Reduce watering slightly during cooler months.
Pinch back the tips of young plants to encourage bushier growth and more flowers. Remove spent blooms regularly to promote continuous flowering. Prune any leggy or damaged stems to maintain a neat appearance.
Light pruning can be done anytime.
Impatiens ambanizanensis is easily propagated from stem cuttings. Take 4-6 inch cuttings from healthy stems, remove the lower leaves, and dip the cut end in rooting hormone.
Plant in moist potting mix or water and keep in a warm, bright location.
Repot your Impatiens ambanizanensis every 1-2 years, or when it becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one. Use a well-draining potting mix.
Repotting is best done in spring before active growth begins.
