Default Impatiens tinctoria

Is anyone else growing this outdoors? Autumn is definitely upon us but
somewhat to my surprise, ours is still flowering, if a bit sparsely. I
think I'm inclined to plant much bigger clumps of it next year! It's
in two different parts of the garden and if it can get through last
year, well........! Same goes for the Amicia zygomeris - that too
disappears every year but comes back, regular as clockwork and is in
full flower now. I heard the other day from someone growing it in a
garden in Cumbria!
