They have been blooming all season in the shady parts of our garden.
However, lately, they
are slowly dying on us, despite normal watering care.
Does anybody have any suggestions as to why this is happening? We have not
had any cold
nights as yet in S. Ontario, and the weather continues to be good.

Here in SE Michigan, I've had to give up on Impatiens walleriana, due to the
spread of Impatiens downy mildew.

Read it and weep:

Where I would used Impatiens last year, I substituted Polkadot plant
(Hypoestes phyllostachys) and was very happy:
