So I always just throw away the plant after it has fully blossomed. Instead of placing a pot next to the impatiens and wait for the seeds to land on the soil, I would rather do the seeding by myself for better control. We can grow impatiens from seeds or by cuttings. Cut stems of 3-4 inches, and plant the stems into some soil mix. Remember to keep soil moist while rooting ;) Happy Gardening! Hi Jasmine,

Saw the process and the huge expolosion of flowers!Congrats! Hey!I need your help as I am new to impatien flowers. where are their seed pods and whatt do they look like. Does it help placing a pot full of soil next to pot full of impatien flowers so that when the pod burst the seed can land on soil and germinate. How do you separate the plants for transplanting when the pot gets overcrowded? I have no idea how to do it . Please advice- you seemto kow alot. i feed my impatient pot every 2 weeks and water them every three days Thanks Jasmine wow!! Saw the process and the huge expolosion of flowers!Congrats!

It's like a strawberry pot in plastic. I think it also look nice placed flat on the table on ground. I can imagine when the impatiens bloom, they would be definitely create a lovely sight. Neat job!
