Impatiens balsamina is an annual that grows to about 2.5 feet tall and about 2.5 feet wide. The plant has long leaves and large flowers that come in a variety of colors. The balsamina can produce blooms of rose, scarlet, violet, salmon and white to bring unusual color and variety to a flower garden. The balsamina needs some shade from the sun, and it can be used in flowerbeds that get only partial sun and as border flowers in spots that have some protection from the sun. Their wide width and bright colors make them ideal edging for paths and front walks.

They can also be grown in greenhouses for flashy color all year. They need to be watered often, keeping the soil moist. Avoid letting them stay in standing water.
