Nasturtium Trailing Single Blend HEIRLOOM Seeds

Tropaeolum majus

Item #1029

Annual. Single Blend nasturtiums bloom in shades of scarlet, gold, orange, and yellow single flowers. Their long, trailing stems can be easily trained up a trellis or fence. The edible blossoms and leaves taste a bit peppery like watercress, adding a wonderful kick of flavor and color to salads. Rabbit and deer deterrent. Grown as an annual, but perennial in USDA zones 10 and warmer.
