Growing beautiful flowers from nasturtium seeds

There are two options for such an interesting process as growing nasturtium from seeds: for seedlings and directly into the ground. But, since nasturtium is a fairly frost-resistant plant, this allows you not to bother yourself with caring for the seedlings, but to sow the flowers directly into the ground. To ensure that your flowers are strong, bright and delight you with long, long flowering, you need to do the following:

Tips for growing nasturtiums

  • It is best to sow the seeds in the ground in the first week of May; to do this, they must first be soaked in water for a day. In just a few days you will be able to see small sprouts.
  • To sow nasturtium seeds, choose not very fertile soils and sunny places. Otherwise, the flowering will not be so bright, but the leaves will develop very well.
  • Nasturtium seeds can be planted in a greenhouse. There they will quickly grow and take root, and then you can transplant the cuttings into open ground.
  • Since nasturtium produces a lot of shoots, it needs regular watering. Don't forget this.

Growing nasturtium from seeds will become your favorite garden activity if you follow the tips described above, and the garden will delight you with bright colors and lift your spirits all summer long.
