The Full Picture
Balsam (Impatiens balsamina) is a nostalgic flower for many Indians. It pops up everywhere during the Lucknow monsoon. Its 'explosive' seed pods provide endless fun for kids. For gardeners, it’s a blessing because it blooms when most other plants are rotting from rain. It loves the humid, overcast days of July and August.
