This New Guinea Impatiens plant has been here for at least 4 years and is more than 3 feet/ 1 meter tall...not sure how long they live...however, it seems to love this semi-shady spot in Balboa Park, San Diego, CA. Photo taken May 27, 2010.

Thanks for the information! : > ) More 7 years is a long life for New Guinea Impatiens.
When I used to grow them...I used to keep them for 3 years then would throw them out. I'll have to plant some this year as fillers and color.

See who else is growing Impatiens hawkeri (New Guinea impatiens).
See who else has plants in genus Impatiens.
They're beautiful. At my last home, my New Guineas lasted over 7 years ... they got fed and trimmed regularly and were very happy in their shady spot.
