Nasturtium Climbing Mixed | Tropaeolum

A succession of long-spurred, funnel-shaped, yellow, orange and red flowers appear from July to September amid the light green leaves of this easy to grow annual climber. These colourful nasturtiums are perfect for covering bare walls in record time, or for scrambling over sunny banks and slopes. Growing instructions: Soak the seeds overnight and then sow an early crop under glass in good seed compost, covering lightly. Maintain the temperature between 13-16°C and water when necessary. When large enough to handle, pot on or acclimatise slowly and plant outside after all risk of frost has passed. Alternatively sow directly outside in mid to late spring. These plants flower best in poor soil, so take care not to over-fertilise. Dead-heading regularly will also encourage an even better display. Sow: March to June Flowering: June to September
