KEMBANG PACAR

Finding self growing plants is a lovely thing.
Look... we're finding some Kembang Pacar or rose balsam (Impatien balsamina) in the raised bed.
This simple plant with double petal flower is so beautiful.



This plant grows rapidly.


 Enjoy the weather...

 

Growing wildly...


I really love it...


The color is so striking...


Thanks GOD for this beauty...

  2. Plant them in groups, when they bloom the effect can be quite impressive.

  3. My friend used to grow these (maybe she still does, I'll have to ask). I tried to grow them once from seed, but I don't think I had enough sun. Beautiful plants!

  4. My Father-in-law used to love these plants. He had a huge patch of them. All colors. Seeing this one brings back fond memories. I had them in the garden for awhile but they eventually stopped coming back.

    1. several years ago, I planted some single petal varieties. Looks so simple if it's grown as single planted, but looks so awesome if it's grown in a mass patch.

  7. I love rose balsam too, Endah. Some years ago I had these plants as annuals in my garden. But they aren't self-seeding because of cold winter.
    Yours are well and happy.

    1. Thank you, Nadezda. Ross balsam mostly grow wildly here, the mature fruits is usually broken and then the seed spread naturally.
