Sandorn, New Guinea Impatients require a bit more sun then in early spring, so if yours are in total shade you may have to be patient. You don't say when you planted them.
I'm a bit confused about your statement, "There was fertilizer in the bag of mix, so I did add any." I thought you said you planted these in the ground. Did you add potting soil to the ground? The best thing to add is compost to your soil. And no, don't add more fertilizer as you risk burning your plants. If you did add potting soil to the planting bed that contained a slow release fertilizer, wait at least 2 months before you fertilize again. These plants do not tolerate severe heat, so they may not last through the winter.
