Does anyone have any experience with growing Touch-me-nots or Jewelweed?

I understand these native versions of wild impatiens are great attractors of hummingbirds late in the season, but I can't find a seed source for them. I am particularly interested in the variety that grows (native?) in the East. I thought they were reddish, but most pics I have found the flowers are pale.

Are they ordinarily grown from division? Does anybody know anything about them?

Thank you very much.
