Growing Tips

  • Soak seeds briefly before sowing to help soften their firm seed coats.
  • Sow directly outdoors after frost when the soil has warmed.
  • Choose well-drained soil and avoid locations that remain waterlogged.
  • Limit fertilizer, as overly rich soil may produce more foliage than flowers.

Seed Storage

Keep unused seeds in a cool, dry, dark location. Store them in an airtight, moisture-resistant container away from heat and humidity. Label the container with the variety and storage date for convenient future planting.

Unique Facts About Seeds

  • Nasturtium seeds are relatively large, making them easy for gardeners to handle and sow.
  • Tropaeolum majus originated in South America and is now widely grown as a garden ornamental.
  • Nasturtium flowers and young leaves are edible and have a naturally peppery flavor.
  • The rounded leaves have a distinctive appearance and can hold water droplets on their surface.

Growing Instructions

Planting Season: Sow outdoors after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed. In mild climates, sowing can be timed for cooler growing periods.

Sowing: Direct sowing is recommended because nasturtiums can be sensitive to root disturbance. Prepare loose, well-drained soil before planting.

Depth: Plant seeds about half an inch deep and cover lightly with soil.

Spacing: Space plants about ten to twelve inches apart, allowing extra room where trailing growth is expected.

Sunlight: Provide full sun for strong flowering. Partial shade can be suitable in particularly hot growing conditions.

Soil: Use loose, well-drained soil with moderate fertility. Avoid excessively rich soil to encourage better flowering.

Watering: Keep the soil moderately moist during germination. Once established, water when the surface begins to dry, avoiding consistently soggy conditions.

Germination: Seeds generally germinate within seven to fourteen days when moisture, temperature, and soil conditions are suitable.

Transplanting: Direct sowing is preferable. If started indoors, transplant young seedlings carefully to minimize disturbance to their roots.

Fertilizing: Fertilize sparingly. Excess nitrogen can encourage lush foliage while reducing flower production.

Care: Remove damaged leaves and spent flowers when desired. Allow trailing stems to spread naturally or guide them onto suitable supports.

Flowering/Maturity: Plants generally begin flowering within about eight to twelve weeks after sowing, depending on climate, sunlight, and growing conditions.
