Infuse your garden with a burst of color and flavor with our premium Nasturtium Plant Seeds. Nasturtiums (Tropaeolum majus) are beloved for their striking, vibrant flowers and edible leaves, making them a perfect addition to any garden, patio, or culinary dish. Easy to grow and low maintenance, nasturtiums are ideal for both novice and experienced gardeners.
Features
- Premium Quality Seeds: Our carefully selected nasturtium seeds ensure high germination rates and robust plant growth.
- Vibrant Blooms: Enjoy a stunning array of flower colors, including bright red, orange, yellow, and cream, that will brighten any space.
- Hardy and Adaptable: Nasturtiums thrive in various soil conditions and require minimal care once established, making them perfect for any gardener.
Benefits
- Aesthetic Appeal: Nasturtiums bring vivid color and beauty to gardens, borders, containers, and hanging baskets.
- Pollinator Attraction: These flowers attract beneficial pollinators like bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, supporting a healthy garden ecosystem.
- Natural Pest Control: Nasturtiums can act as a trap crop, drawing aphids away from other plants and protecting your garden.
Planting Instructions
- Timing: Sow nasturtium seeds directly in the garden after the last frost date, or start indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost.
- Soil Preparation: These plants prefer well-drained soil and can thrive in poor soil conditions. No need for rich soil; they actually bloom better in leaner soil.
- Sowing: Plant seeds 1/2 inch deep, spacing them 10-12 inches apart. Nasturtiums can also be grown in containers or hanging baskets.
- Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist during the germination period. Once established, they are relatively drought-tolerant and require minimal watering.
- Germination: Expect seeds to germinate in 7-14 days under optimal conditions.
Growing and Care
- Sunlight: Nasturtiums thrive in full sun to partial shade. Ensure they receive at least 6 hours of sunlight daily for optimal blooming.
- Watering: Water regularly, especially during dry periods, but avoid overwatering. Nasturtiums prefer slightly dry conditions once established.
- Fertilizing: Avoid heavy fertilization as it can lead to excessive leaf growth with fewer flowers. A light application of a balanced fertilizer once a month is sufficient.
- Pruning: Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming throughout the growing season.
Harvesting
- Flowers: Pick flowers as they open for the freshest taste and best appearance in culinary uses.
- Leaves: Harvest young leaves for a milder flavor and older leaves for a spicier taste. Both can be used fresh in salads or as garnishes.
