Spotted touch-me-not (Impatiens capensis)

Spotted touch-me-not, also known as Orange balsam, Common jewelweed

The spotted touch-me-not, native to North America, features bright orange flowers adorned with darker spots. Its common name, "touch-me-not," stems from its unique seed dispersal method. When the seed pods mature, even a gentle touch triggers them to burst open, flinging seeds away from the plant. This process, known as explosive dehiscence, aids in spreading the seeds to new locations.
