    I think she is. I've never seen it for real but have just looked at photos. Once you get past all the red and yellow ones there are some like the picrture above



    In the sticks near Peterborough
  • I had to google Impatiens niamnianensis. Not the best time of year to have impatians seedlings but am sure it will get through the winter inside.

    I was a bit thrown at first cause I've only seen red and yellow flowers. I bought one at a plant sale some years back but lost it,

  • Ta for all responses. Izzy is right, it is Impatiens niamnianensis. We will mollycoddle it all winter and if it survives will post some photos of it in early spring.

    Thanks again.
