Notes

'Bloody Mary Nasturtium' (Tropaeolum minus 'Bloody Mary Nasturtium') is an annual for borders, containers, and ground cover. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full or part sun. It grows 16 to 20 inches tall, so it fits well along the front of a bed or in a pot. Once settled in, it tolerates drought. Butterflies and bees visit the plant.

Pairs well with Shiso, Texas bluebonnet, Fountain grass, and Silver sage.
