One of the nicest of the larger hardy Impatiens. Originally from Ethiopia it has proved hardy. dying down to a large tuberous root and re-appearing in the spring. Growing to a height of 90-120cm (3-4') it flowers throughout the summer and into the autumn. Prefers a semi shaded moist site but is at home in most places. Bury deep to avoid hard frost.
