- Abundant Blooming: Double Nasturtium is known for its large, funnel-shaped flowers that come in a wide range of colors, including red, orange, yellow and cream. The flowers are double, giving them a fuller, more spectacular appearance.
- Ornamental Leaves: In addition to its flowers, the rounded, slightly waxy leaves of the Nasturtium add a decorative element to the garden.
- Edible Plant: All parts of the Double Nasturtium are edible. The flowers, leaves and immature seeds can be added to salads for a spicy flavour, while the mature seeds can be pickled as a substitute for capers.
Watering: Prefers well-drained, moderately moist soil. Regular watering is important, especially during dry periods, but avoiding waterlogging. Nasturtium is relatively drought tolerant once established.
Lighting: They thrive in full sun or partial shade. In warm climates, they may benefit from some shade during the hottest hours of the day.
Pests: Nasturtium is generally resistant to pests, but can be used as a trap plant for aphids, protecting other plants in the garden. In case of infestation, the use of environmentally friendly products is recommended.
Cold hardiness: Double Nasturtium is sensitive to frost and does best in temperate climates. In colder regions, it is best to sow it after the last frost.
