| I saw this yellow impatient at a local garden show.
Does anyone know the name of this impatient or where I can purchase seeds? I'm not too good at sending photos so please look under plant ID to find picture. |

| Your pic is of Impatiens Fusion yellow. It is being released this year and is only avaiable as a pot plant. It wont make seed. Its a cross of walleriana and auricoma. Its very similar to Seashells yellow but it is a bigger plant with nicer flowers. |

| Thank you very much for the information. I now know what this impatient is called so I can search for plants. It was a very striking plant and I would really want to acquire some when they become available. Thanks again. |

| I am trying a yellow this year called Jungle Gold. I got the seeds from Vesey's. You can see the plant at http://www.veseys.com/store.cfm?product=2717. The seedlings are great - good germination, strong, stocky. I haven't seen any bloom yet but they are very good so far. AM |

| Blondie and Jungle Gold are the same plant just renamed. It was released as Blondie then it was sold to another company who changed it to Jungle Gold. |

| Oh I just saw that at a garden center friday and was getting on this forum to ask about it too! It was so lovely, they had a peach one too that was stunning. The garden ctr I was at only offered them in hanging pots though... pretty expensive ; ( |
