Plant height — New Guinea Impatiens

Impatiens New Guinea Group

Plant height is a key varietal parameter characterized in breeding as the height of the foliage zone. For New Guinea hybrids, this indicator ranges from 25 to 60 cm and directly determines planting density and container selection.

In the reference 79 varieties crop New Guinea Impatiens, where this is mentioned in the description.

According to international variety testing methods, plant height is evaluated by the level of the foliage zone using qualitative categories: low, medium, and high. In production practice, a distinction is made between compact varieties with shortened internodes and medium- or tall-growing groups that possess a spreading habit.

This trait is a determining factor for production planning: compact forms optimize the use of greenhouse space and are suitable for sale in small 12–15 cm pots. To maintain specified growth parameters and prevent plant stretching, microclimate control methods are used, such as creating a temperature differential known as negative DIF.
