Mt Penang Gardens have established a working partnership with Ball Horticulture to act as a trial garden for their newly developed SunPatiens range. The varieties on display at Mt Penang Gardens are all from the compact variety and vary in colour from the compact white to the stunning vibrant compact orange.

These plants are easy to care for, take full sun and will bloom all season from Spring right through to a light frost. They perform well in garden beds, in a large patio pot or in a mass planting setting such as shown here at Mt Penang Gardens.

The six varieties provided to Mt Penang Gardens by Ball Horticulture have all been planted along the water’s edge in full sun creating a stunning walkway from the wet climate plants through to the dry climate plant area.

These SunPatiens have developed to present a spectacular display in only two months. Mt Penang Gardens wishes to thank Ball Horticulture Australia and in particular Scott Franklin who has been assisting the gardens with this exciting new development.
