  1. Balsam's lovely! Its explosive seedpods send it all over. A couple planted themselves in my front yard, from neighboring plants many feet away.

  3. Liz,
    The seed pods needed to visit your garden. lol
    They will reseed sometimes. And, they can get really tall, near 3 feet.

  4. I haven't seen balsam since my mother grew them when I was a teenager. Forgot how pretty they are.

    All the balsam flowers have a soft pastel hue except for the magenta.
