    Hello!

    A friend of mine was given a cutting of a plant a few months ago and it has grown like crazy. However, no one around here seems to know what type of plant it is. I'm attaching a photo of it in the hope that someone there would recognize it. Any help would be much appreciated.

    The plant pictured is Impatiens niamniamensis, a tropical species from East Africa.
