Impatiens is a pretty plant, but I would not advise planting it in the garden.
Julian, beautiful pictures.
Have a nice weekend.

Hello, Lucia)
that flowers looks pretty good, for sure... but I don't know how did these get into our garden...maybe with the mix of seeds?!)) Nevertheless, for the late summer it's a great decoration in the garden...

Hi:)
A lovely delicate looking Orquid!
How lovely to find this in your garden.

The names made me smile,especially Indian-Touch-Me-Not, and Kiss-Me-On-The-Mountain!
Cheers.

Lovely photos, they really pick out the plants best side! Bees love it too, good source of nectar.
However in England it is a very big problem - brought over by Victorian plant hunters/collectors it escaped from gardens, and is extremely invasive and out-competes native plants along our river banks.

Juliana said...

Thank you, dear friends, for your kind words)) Hope you enjoy your weekend!
xoxo, Juliana
