NASTURTIUM TALL CLIMBING MIXED COLOURS - SEED

NASTURTIUM TALL CLIMBING MIX

Description
Tall Climbing Mixed Nasturtium Seeds 5800. Great for walls and fences or as a ground cover in sunny areas. Strong vines reach 2 m (6′) tall but need some help attaching themselves to supports. Flowers occur in the same colour range as Dwarf Jewel Mixed.

How to Grow
6 seed/gram. As nasturtiums resent transplanting, directly sow seed into well drained soil in late May 2.5 cm (1″) deep and 5 cm (2″) apart, thinning seedlings to 20 cm (8″) apart. Seed generally germinates within 12 days. Full sun is preferred. Partial shade is recommended in hot summer areas. Blooms have a peppery taste and are quite popular as a salad garnish. We recommend removing spent flowers to help lengthen the blooming period.
