Now available organic! Victorian era heirloom.
Scarlet flowers stand out amid the dark blue-green foliage of this old-fashioned favorite. The compact, mounded plant habit makes it especially suitable for containers or as an edging plant. Also known as garden nasturtium and Indian cress.

• Edible Flower: Use the flowers as garnishes, or stuff with soft cheese. The flowers can be minced and added to butters and the immature seed heads can be pickled. Nasturtiums are a popular choice for adding color to salad mix. Peppery-flavored foliage is also edible.

USDA Certified Organic. Ht. 16–20". Avg. 300 seeds/oz. Packet: 50 seeds.
DAYS TO GERMINATION:7-14 days at 60-65°F (16-18°C).

SOWING:Direct seed (recommended): Sow 2 weeks before last frost, 8-12" apart, 1/2-1" deep. Cover seed as they require darkness to germinate. Thin when seedlings have the first true leaves. Transplant: Sow 3-4 weeks before the last frost. Plant 2 seeds 1/2-1" deep in individual cells or pots. Cover seeds as they require darkness to germinate. Thin to one plant per cell or pot.
