Double flower balsam


This is an easy flower to grow. I only have to plant it once, and   it will self seeded. I fertilize the seedlings once in a while. It grows in full sun in less fertile soil. Its double purple blooms are really beautiful. This is very hardy plant, despite been pounded relentlessly by heavy rain during the monsoon season, it is standing tall and producing mass of beautiful flowers.

    lynnhelite: saya ni sibuk dan malas nak kutip benih.Kalau nak order pergi kat blog adik saya www.jualjualbenih.blogspot.com. Kalau lynn sanggup tunggu cili purple tu masak nanti saya tumpangkan benih cili yang saya janjikan hari tu dgn order lynn. Hari tu cili rosak sbb hujan dan lalat buah, skrg nampak ada 2 biji yg dah nak masak dan buah pun nampak elok.

    Dewberry: actually i'm tired of purple, last 2 weeks i've only purple/burgandy colour
    orchid, petunia, carnation, balsam etc.
