Notes

'Baby Rose' nasturtium (Tropaeolum minus 'Baby Rose') is an annual for borders, containers, and pollinator gardens. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit the blooms, and the plant tolerates drought. Deer tend to browse other plants first.

Pairs well with Cosmos, African marigold, and Lavender.
