Danita, thank you; I love the bloom on this particular Impatiens. I got the little plant last June from an on-line vendor and I didn't even realize it was was still around! We moved 3 weeks ago and before and after the move, it kinda got lost in the shuffle! My husband brought a trailer load of plants up about a week and a half before we actually moved and he crammed all of the containers onto the back patio and small screened porch. This little one, along with a few other smaller plants was sitting in the pot of a larger plant.
With unpacking and trying to get settled, plants took a back seat but I finally got my little garden wagon out a couple of days ago and moved plants to locations around the yard and then when I began to water everything, I happened to notice a couple of blooms peeking out and I knew immediately that it was this little Impatiens! It's leaning to one side seeking light, due to the fact that it was crammed together in tight quarters with others for a few weeks! It probably needs to be re-potted and trimmed back a bit. When I get around to doing that I'm going to try to root the cut stems.
Absolutely gorgeous, Lin!
There is a variegated version, too.
