Kelly, impatiens are one of those I never seem to find the seeds on, but I have a packet that someone sent me from 2003 and I grow only about 10 plants of impatiens each year, and the seeds from that 2003 packet are still germinating. (hows that for a run-on sentence)
The white alyssum sounds like it would look very nice.

Neal, the Ageratum 'Leilani Blue' grow in Full Sun here. I've never tried them in my partial sun area. They don't seem to mind if it is dry or moist. They grow to around 15 inches in height. They say they are a good cut flower, but I find they begin to drop petals with in 36 to 48 hours, so I don't use them for my vases.

I don't seem to have any pictures of the leilani blue, except this one with my 'Eye on America' daylily. I think I posted this picture last year.
