Have they found a Cure for Busy Lizzies's Yet?

Has anyone read any reports of whether the botanists have found a cure for Busy Lizzie wilt yet?  I love these colourful little plants and they are the best for the shady areas of my patio but I have not bought them for the last few years.

Would be most grateful for any advice.

    They havent, but there are Busy Lizzie that dont succumb to it, dont buy any that are called Walleriana. Try New Guinea they will be fine.

    Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor. 

  • Verdun put me onto Beech wood nurseries on line they have sunpatients I'm waiting for mine to arriveimage

  • Whoops sorry Brookside nurseries (it's the rain on the brainimage)

    Thanks for reply and advice Lynn and Primrose  - I really thought they may have found the cure by now - what a shame.
