Keith, sorry,...yes I knew they were impatiens even when I typed that, sorry I do that often between the two plants (senior moment), the flowers are so close looking. I\'m amazed you grew that from seed. Years ago impatiens readily re-seeded in my garden like crazy, but for some reason they don\'t anymore. For about four years we couldn\'t even get seeds or live plants here in Florida , they were banned due to some kind of disease.
Vinca aka: Periwinkles re-seed here in FL, they love our sandy soil and hot sun, they pop up in the strangest places, I have some pink growing in the crack of a stone planter with no soil at all. If you look closely at this pic behind the big bromeliad bloom you can see the Vinca growing on the side of the planter, that plant is three years old now.

Gypsi, great pics, and nice close up of the Golden orb spider, they are abundant here in FL too. Yes Vinca doesn\'t like wet spots and gets a fungus in the nurseries often from overwatering, I feel like it they live long enough to make it the the death rack and still look good, they\'re good to buy.
