Ideal Temperatures for Impatiens in a School Experiment: Florida Conditions

Temperature Range

Impatiens thrive at 58–83°F. They decline below ~36°F. Your day/night temperatures are perfect.

Keep them outside—indoors they attract aphids and whiteflies, which could confound your experiment. Water regularly; daytime heat dries pots quickly.
