Notes
'Baby Orange' nasturtium (Tropaeolum minus 'Baby Orange') is an annual for borders, containers, and low maintenance beds. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit the blooms, and it handles dry spells well. Deer tend to browse other plants first. It grows about 12 inches tall and wide.
Pairs well with African marigold, Cosmos, and Lavender.
