Big bold "Skirted Snapweed" with impressively succulent stem skirted with toothed basil green foliage demanding very bright light. Large pale lilac pink flat faced blossoms with darker eye liner and elongated tail. Initially we listed this as "Impatiens zanzibarensis," while actually this clone probably is a hybrid by Derick Pitman of Impatiens sodenii uguensis and Impatiens sodenii oliveri. Thanks to Derick Pitman for this information and update!

Some of you grow only indoors, some only in terrariums; many of you have hobby greenhouses; while a growing number of customers live in subtropical or tropical areas of the world. These brief codes are an attempt to suggest whether or not a particular plant will do well in your particular conditions.
If an entry has the cluster HP CGH, this means normal house plant culture will be successful if the plant is given a cool CGH moist location; however if the entry has the cluster CGH HP, you would interpret this to suggest that while Cool Greenhouse conditions are needed for total success with this plant, House Plant conditions will be adequate, while not ideal. If the cluster is HH CGH you would interpret this to mean that while in Zone 8 or below this will be winter hardy outdoor, further north it will need considerable mulch, a cold frame, or a Cool Greenhouse to thrive. And so on.
