The flowers are 2–3 cm in length (1 inch), in most species it resembles a horseshoe or horn-shaped protuberance, so that at least the upper petals are small compared to others, and some have a prominent spur lip, allowing the stability of pollinators on them. Others, such as Busy Lizzie (I. walleriana), have flat flowers with large petals as well as a small bump somewhat similar to violets (Viola), although they are unrelated dicotyledons. A few Impatiens species have medium sized flowers that are a mixture between these two main types.The scientific name Impatiens (Latin for "impatient") and the common name "touch-me-not" refer to the explosive dehiscence of the seed capsules. The mature capsules burst, sending seeds up to several meters away when touched.
