DESCRIPTION

IN-STOCK ORDERS SHIP WITHIN THE NEXT BUSINESS DAY. Growing only 12-16" tall, Tom Thumb Balsam Mix is an attractive dwarf species blooming in mixed colors of rose, salmon, white, scarlet, and violet. This plant is perfectly suited for the shady places in your garden. The bright blooms also attract pollinators.
This old fashioned cousin of the garden impatiens originates in the southeastern regions of Asia. Its genus name Impatiens comes from its "impatient" habit of exploding its seeds from their pods at the slightest touch. Dr. John Kirk, chief medical officer and expert botanist on numerous exploratory journeys led by Dr. Livingston, introduced this plant to his homeland. Victorian gardeners often included it in their flowerbeds, but the appearance of more showy hybrid varieties soon overshadowed the modest beauty of this species.
