This variety is especially valued for its creamy green-and-white leaves, which add visual interest even before the plants begin to bloom. The plants stay neat and bushy rather than trailing, making them perfect for containers, borders, and small garden spaces. Nasturtiums are easy to grow, thrive in poorer soils, and bloom all summer with very little maintenance. The flowers are also edible, with a mild peppery flavour that works well in salads and as a garnish. Pollinators love them, and many gardeners plant nasturtiums near vegetables to help attract beneficial insects. If you want a low-maintenance flower that is both ornamental and useful, this is an excellent choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Characteristics\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttracts bees and pollinators\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEdible flowers and leaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat for containers and borders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy to grow and low maintenance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Scientific Name: Tropaeolum majus\u003cbr\u003e• Life Cycle: Annual\u003cbr\u003e• Seed Type: Open Pollinated\u003cbr\u003e• Light Requirements: Full sun to partial shade\u003cbr\u003e• Plant Height: 25–30 cm (10–12”)\u003cbr\u003e• Seed Depth: 1–2 cm (½–¾”)\u003cbr\u003e• Spacing: 20–25 cm (8–10”)\u003cbr\u003e• Bloom Time: Early summer to fall\u003cbr\u003e• Days to Maturity: 50–60 days\u003cbr\u003e• Edible \/ Toxic: Yes – edible\u003cbr\u003e• Germination: 7–14 days at 18–22°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Instructions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDirect sow outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, as nasturtiums do not like being transplanted. Plant seeds about 1–2 cm deep in average to poor soil. Avoid overly rich soil, as this will produce more leaves and fewer flowers. Water regularly until established, then plants are fairly drought tolerant. Deadheading will encourage continuous blooming throughout the season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFAQ\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eQ: Can I grow nasturtiums in containers?\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes, Tip Top Alaska varieties are compact and perfect for pots and containers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Are nasturtium flowers really edible?\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes, both the flowers and leaves are edible and have a mild peppery taste, great for salads and garnishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Circle Farms","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48189082501376,"sku":null,"price":6.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0617\/6646\/7840\/files\/TipTopAlaskaSalmon.jpg?v=1774110406","url":"https:\/\/www.circlefarms.ca\/fr\/products\/nasturtium-seeds-tip-top-alaska-salmon","provider":"Circle Farms","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
