I spotted this New Guinea Impatiens ( Impatiens hawkeri ) growing in a pot close to the street in an open carport. These plants grow to only around 40 cm tall, but what they lack in height is more than made up for by the flower display. The flowers are mostly abundant during the warmer months, and variety of colours available is amazing. if you live in a temperate to warm climate, you should find space for a few. Try to plant them in a spot that avoids the hot afternoon sun, as they are happiest in a spot with morning sun or part-shade and water regularly.
