Product Description

Mr Fothergills Nasturtium Mixed Seeds Trailing (Tropaeolum majus) are a reliable and highly versatile choice for summer planting. This fast-growing hardy annual produces an abundance of brightly coloured flowers set against rounded green foliage, creating a bold and cheerful display from early summer through to autumn. The trailing habit makes these nasturtiums perfect for cascading over baskets and containers, while their climbing nature allows them to be trained up trellises or fences to form an attractive seasonal screen.

Well suited to full sun and free-draining soil, trailing nasturtiums are exceptionally easy to grow and perform well even in less fertile ground. In addition to their ornamental value, both the flowers and leaves are edible, offering a peppery taste that works well in salads and garnishes. Their nectar-rich blooms also attract bees and butterflies, making them a valuable addition to wildlife-friendly gardens.
