| The balsam impatiens I planted from seed just flowered. I am so proud! This is my first time planting something from seed, except the bean plants, I did as a science project in elementary school. :)
Does anybody know how to get seeds for next year from the plant? I planted two seeds packets and I think this may be the heirloom once because it has a scent whereas the other ones don't. |

| Those are gorgeous! Mine have little green football shaped pods that pop at the slightest squeeze when they're ready to get the seeds from. I hold a bowl or paper bag under them when I'm collecting because they like to jump all over. I would love to trade for some seeds of the fragrant ones if you get enough to share. This link has some info on them http://plantsdatabase.com/go/156/index.html |

| They're fun. Very easy from seed ( I direct sow after frost) and nice annuals for the shade. :) |
