  • Avoid excessive nitrogen fertilizer, which can encourage foliage over flowers.
  • Give trailing varieties room to spread or provide suitable support.
  • Remove faded flowers to encourage continued blooming.

Growing Instructions

Planting Season: Sow outdoors in spring after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed. In warm climates, sow during a suitable cooler growing period.

Sowing: Prepare loose, well-drained soil and sow seeds directly in their final growing location. Direct sowing helps minimize root disturbance.

Depth: Plant seeds approximately ½–1 inch deep and cover lightly with soil.

Spacing: Space plants approximately 8–12 inches apart, allowing additional room for spreading or trailing growth.

Sunlight: Provide full sun for good flowering. Partial shade can be beneficial in very hot climates.

Soil: Use loose, moderately fertile, well-drained soil. Avoid overly rich soil, which can promote excessive foliage.

Watering: Keep soil evenly moist during germination and early growth. Once established, water when the upper soil begins to dry.

Germination: Seeds commonly germinate within approximately 7–14 days under favorable conditions. Temperature, moisture, and seed freshness can affect germination speed.

Thinning: Thin crowded seedlings after emergence to provide sufficient room for healthy growth and airflow.

Fertilizing: Nasturtiums generally require little fertilizer in moderately fertile soil. Avoid excessive nitrogen.

Care: Keep weeds controlled around young plants and allow adequate room for trailing or spreading growth.

Flowering/Maturity: Plants generally begin flowering during the warmer growing season and may continue into fall under favorable conditions.

Deadheading: Remove faded flowers to maintain a tidy appearance and encourage additional blooms. Leave selected flowers to mature if collecting seeds.

Seed Collection: Allow mature seed pods to dry on the plant. Collect dried or fallen seeds and store them properly.

Container Growing: Grow in containers with drainage holes and a well-drained potting mix. Trailing selections are especially attractive in hanging baskets.

Cut Flower Use: Fresh nasturtium flowers can be used for simple decorative displays. Handle the delicate stems and blooms carefully.
