Nasturtiums can thrive in nearly any climate, from the frigid extremes of Antarctica to the warmth of the subtropics! With their remarkable adaptability, Tropaeolum majus (commonly known as the garden or common nasturtium) brings its vibrant beauty to gardens, trellises, and planters in regions with freezing temperatures as low as -50°F, as well as in the hottest zones. This remarkable flexibility is just one of the many qualities that make the humble nasturtium so special.

This Grow Kit contains approximately 200 nasturtium seeds, enough to cover an area of about 225 square feet.

Getting to Know Nasturtiums!

It's hard not to adore Tropaeolum majus — the cheerful, easygoing common nasturtium! This vibrant flower is not only a visual delight but also offers a spicy-sweet taste. Nasturtiums are beloved for their colorful beauty and versatile uses. They can brighten flower beds, enhance floral arrangements, provide pollinator habitat, and even add a zesty, peppery flavor to salads. Best of all, they thrive effortlessly in a wide range of growing conditions and climates.

Nasturtiums feature bold, funnel-shaped flowers that attract a variety of pollinators, including honeybees and hummingbirds. They also serve as a host plant for many butterfly species, which often lay their eggs and create cocoons under the plant's large, wheel-shaped leaves. The flowers come in a stunning range of colors, from bright oranges and yellows to creamy whites and deep reds, with hues that change and swirl across the petals as the blooms age, creating beautiful, tie-dye-like patterns.
