Variety traits

Plant height — Impatiens walleriana

Impatiens walleriana Hook. f.

Plant height of Impatiens walleriana is a key quantitative varietal trait measured during the mass flowering stage from the soil surface to the apex of the aerial part.

In the reference 21 varieties crop Busy Lizzie, where this is mentioned in the description.

During variety trials, plant height is evaluated on a scoring scale, where 3 corresponds to low-growing varieties, 5 to medium-growing, and 7 to tall ones. In quantitative terms, dwarf and compact forms typically reach 10–25 cm, medium-growing forms 25–40 cm, and tall representatives can exceed 50–60 cm.

The trait is strongly influenced by growing conditions, such as light intensity and nitrogen fertilization levels. Light deficiency or excess nitrogen triggers internode elongation, which leads to undesirable stem stretching, loss of decorative compactness, and increased fragility of the bush.
