Himalayan Balsam

Impatiens glandulifera

Description:

This flower grew quite tall (maybe 5-6 feet?) with leaves all the way up. The flowers are pink... all of which you can see in the photos.

Habitat:

Possibly planted there. On a corner as you enter a parking lot from a road in Mid-coast Maine.

Notes:

They were slightly wilted in appearance. We had a very hot dry summer here this year.
