Our premium 7 color garden balsam seeds come with stable germination rate and bushy compact upright growth. Botanically named Impatiens balsamina, also known as touch-me-not, this mixed seven-color strain bears gorgeous full double blooms similar to camellias in red, pink, purple, white and gradient shades. Thick glossy green leaves form a neat shrub shape with strong ornamental value.
Garden balsam performs well in partial shade and cannot withstand intense scorching sunlight, blooming continuously from early summer until autumn frost arrives. It is widely used for flower bed mass planting, under-tree shaded landscaping, border edging, courtyard group planting and balcony container potted decoration. It prefers loose fertile well-drained soil with slight humidity, and its mature seed pods pop open when touched to spread seeds automatically. Regular moderate watering and timely deadheading are the only daily care needed, which makes it a perfect choice for shaded garden layout and novice flower growers.
