Shine a light on colour for the shade with more NEW lighthouse mixes

These have been trialed and approved to grow well together and look vibrant in the shade, and they offer high resistance to the widely prevalent populations of Plasmopara destructor, the cause of Impatiens downy mildew. These mixes are suitable for packs, pots, hanging baskets and in-ground beds. Visit beaconimpatiens.com for more details on the Beacon story.
