Nasturtium

Nasturtiums are vibrant annual flowers prized for their cheerful blooms and edible leaves. These fast-growing plants typically reach heights of 6 to 12 inches, with trailing varieties extending up to 10 feet. Nasturtiums produce an abundance of funnel-shaped flowers in shades of yellow, orange, red, and sometimes cream, held above rounded, circular leaves. Their attractive foliage adds interest to garden beds, borders, and containers. Nasturtiums thrive in full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil, and they are known for their resilience in various growing conditions. Additionally, both the flowers and leaves are edible, offering a peppery flavor that adds zest to salads and other culinary creations. With their easy care and vibrant appearance, nasturtiums are a popular choice for gardeners seeking both beauty and utility in their landscapes.
