Impatiens johnii is a species of balsam with a restricted distribution in the Munnar region of southern India. The species was first described by Edward Barnes in 1939 and it was not recorded in the wild again until 1999.[2] The species has a restricted geographic distribution and is therefore considered endangered. It is known from the Pettimudy area and flowers from September to December.[3]
