Nasturtium, Tip Top Mix

Tropaeolum minus A/9".

Luscious apricot, gold, mahogany, orange and scarlet flowers held well above the foliage on compact plants. Tip Top Mix Nasturtium are showy, semi double. A real delight in a border, vegetable garden or container.  All parts of nasturtiums are edible but the flowers have the best flavor;  a peppery taste that combines well with other greens in a salad as well as  providing a color accent. 

Planting Directions: Sow seeds 1/2” deep in fine soil after danger from frost has past. Germination takes 7-12 days. Thin plants to 8” apart when plants are 3” tall. Nasturtiums prefer light full sun, with afternoon shade where summers are hot.

Provide a trellis or other support for climbing species. Nasturtiums will flower best in ordinary rather than rich soil.  Nasturtiums do not transplant easily.
