Since 2011 Busy Lizzie stocks have been virtually eradicated by the fungal disease Downy Mildew. Fortunately New Guinea varieties like Busy Lizzie ‘Divine’ are unaffected so you can be sure of a fabulous display. Its large flowers in a mix of red, orange, lavender, white and magenta are perfect for adding colour to patio pots and garden borders. These robust Impatiens plants are vigorous and strong growing, withstanding wet, dry, cold or hot conditions throughout the summer. Height: 30cm (12"). Spread: 35cm (14").

Garden Ready Plants - If you’ve fallen behind with your planting or if greenhouse space is limited, we can help you catch up with our garden-ready plug plants. These sturdy plants are larger than other plugs so they can be planted straight out in the garden provided that there are no forecasts of frost. Perfect for filling containers, baskets and borders without the need for growing on.

When all risk of frost has passed, acclimatise Busy Lizzie plants to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days, prior to planting in their final positions.

Van Meuwen strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.
