Shrub balsam offers various varieties, including 'Sunpatiens', known for its sun tolerance, 'Fusion', prized for its vibrant colors, and 'Bounce', valued for its compact growth. Balsam grows into fine plants if the seeds used for sowing and the seedlings for transplanting are selected properly. The fully mature seed and sturdy seedlings with bright green leaves and strong roots result in robust growth. Waterlogging damages the roots so always grow balsam in well-drained soil. Consider the maximum possible size of the selected variety and whether it fits into the available garden area to avoid overcrowding. Timely inspection and treatment keep pests and diseases under check.
