More attractive than a rose.

Siberia. The first days of autumn. The mysterious alien continues to gain popularity and conquer new areas in my garden. It took me a while to find the name of this intruder. We call him a glandular "touch-me-not" (He does not like when he is touched) lat. Impátiens glandulífera, or English Himalayan balsam, Indian balsam, kiss-me-on-the-mountain, policeman's helmet. I've been watching him all summer. He just has a frenzied popularity among bees and bumblebees. From him has a lot to learn and it need not only his colleagues and neighbors the garden beds, but also us people. WHY IS HE MORE ATTRACTIVE THEN ROSE?! #Siberia #autumn #flowers #kiss-me-on-the-mountain

    Dear KODUCKGIRL
    Thank you for your attention, opinion and emotions.
    Yes, I agree. But it's not just beauty - it's bioengineering perfection itself. Green pods in the form of small peppers are coiled springs that, when touched, unroll at the speed of a shot and throw seeds at a great distance. Therefore, the plant is called "touch-me-not". And inside these intricate flowers, the plant constantly secretes juice that insects like very much. All this allows it to spread very quickly not only at home, but around the world.
