Where to Use

SunPatiens at Home

Whether you have one pretty hanging basket by your front door to fill or an acre of land to play with, SunPatiens® can do the job. 

Because of their unique breeding, SunPatiens grow extremely well in sunny or shady areas.  This makes them very versatile and means that almost everyone can enjoy SunPatiens incredible flower power. Find out more at How to Grow.

  • Hanging Baskets - choose Spreading or Compact types
  • Patio Containers - choose from the Spreading Series if you want a mounding shape in your container or the Compact Series if you want a look that is more upright
  • Garden Beds - Choose according to the amount of space you have and the look you want. Compact is best for smaller spaces and for mingling with other annuals. The Vigorous Series has an upright, V-shaped form. This series is stunning in large spaces and makes a vivid backdrop for other plants. Spreading is ideal if you prefer a mounded form that covers a lot of ground fast.

The truth is, no matter which series you choose to take home, you won't go wrong. They all perform remarkably well in a variety of climates and in many different situations. Take a look at our Ideas & Inspiration  page to see what others are doing with SunPatiens.
