360 Sod (Donna Dixson) on Nov 17, 2012Did you use the same soil? Yes downy mildew is still a big issue in Florida. This is a publication from Feb, so I am thinking the conditions are about the same as then? http://collier.ifas.ufl.edu/CommHort/CommHortPubs/Downy%20Mildew%20on%20Impatiens%20Feb%20%2020_%202012_4pp.pdf what about switching to Torenia or the more tolerant New Guinea impatien? http://pinterest.com/pin/234890936786557593/Helpful Reply
