Balsam plants, also known as Impatiens balsamina, are colorful and easy to grow annuals. Here are some tips to care for balsam plants:
Plant balsam in well-draining soil with plenty of organic matter.
Provide the plant with ample sunlight but avoid hot and direct midday sun.
Keep the soil consistently moist but avoid overwatering as it may lead to root rot.
Fertilize the plant every two to three weeks with a balanced fertilizer.
Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage continuous blooming.
Pinch back the growing tips to promote bushier growth.
Monitor the plant for pests and diseases and treat promptly if any are found.
Finally, balsam plants are prone to self-seeding, so it's best to remove any unwanted seedlings
