Impatiens bokorensis is a flowering plant of the family Balsaminaceae, only known to be found in the Phnum Bokor National Park in the Kampot Province of Cambodia.[1] It is characterized as growing from 15–40 cm (6–20 in) tall, with a branching, deep purple-red stem with alternating leaves and purple-red flowers. It is most typically found in the park on sandstone tables in evergreen forests at 1,050 m (3,440 ft) above sea level.[1]
Impatiens bokorensis is reported to produce little capsules with scurfy hair that contain three to four seeds in August and fruit in November.[1]
The plant can be distinguished from its most similar cousin I. patula by its orbicular-obovate dorsal petal, shorter pedicels and larger seeds.[1]
