i was wondering if anyone could
identify a plant i saw at the brooklyn botanic garden
recently.  it's a pale red flowered Impatiens, with
rather thick stems, and the leaves are very distinctive:
they are narrow and serrated at the edges, and have a
dusting of silver on them.  the seedpods are hairy,
which made me think they might be himalayan in origin?
