'Single Mix' nasturtiums grow eighteen to thirty inches tall with leaves that are round, bright green, on long stalks. The flowers are long-spurred in colors including red, orange, yellow and gold.
Originally from the cool highlands of South America, nasturtiums prefer full sun, dry, well-drained or sandy soils, are somewhat drought tolerant, and tender to frost. Nice as cut flowers. The young leaves, flowers, and even unripe seed pods have peppery flavor and make an interesting addition to garden salads.
An annual, or tender perennial in some warm locations. Each packet contains two grams, which is approximately 10 to 12 seeds.
After all danger of frost has passed in the spring, sow seeds ½ to 1 inch deep, 2 to 3 inches apart, in a sunny location (partial shade in hot climates). Keep moist until germination. Thin to a final spacing of 10 inches. An annual or tender perennial, nasturtiums prefer dry, well-drained or sandy soils, are somewhat drought tolerant, but frost sensitive. They can also be started indoors in pots and transplanted after temperatures remain above 50ºF.
