Notes
'Golden Jewel Nasturtium' nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus 'Golden Jewel 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, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. It sits low on the menu for deer. The fragrant flowers bloom in early to late summer and again in early to late autumn. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit them.
Pairs well with Sunflower, Cosmos, and African marigold.
