Impatiens Dying

YpsiGardner
12 years ago

I have been planting impatiens in the same garden for the past 10 years with great success, but this year have been losing plants left and right - they almost look as if they've been hit by frost. One day they appear to be fine, even starting to develop new buds/leaves and the next they are completed wilted, mushy and almost disintegrating. Does anyone have any ideas about what could be causing them to die? Thanks!!
