        Thanks Lolimac.

        LongK - that's a lovely Impatiens kilimanjari - was that from seed originally? I have always read that I. niamniamensis is short lived, but I am sure my original plant is about 5 years old now and still going strong.

          I received it as a wee cutting a few weeks ago. I was surprised when this flower bud started to emerge.

          Mine was doing well until I discovered what good bedding plants they make...................
