Description

The Double Delight Cream Nasturtium, also known as Tropaeolum majus, is a vigorous annual that quickly forms a wide carpet. Its edible flowers are double to semi-double and have a very bright colour, a cream white tinged with lime green that contrasts well with the medium green of its abundant foliage.

It is a very floriferous nasturtium. It will thrive both in the garden where it will spread like a groundcover, and on your balcony, in a pot or hanging basket. Very easy to grow, you can combine it with other varieties of Nasturtiums or with annuals like Lemonade Sweet Peas.

Originally from South America, the Nasturtium offers beautiful flowers in vibrant colours, ranging from yellow to red, and beautiful round leaves that are always fresh.

Nasturtium has everything to please: it is easy to sow, grows quickly, blooms from June to the first frost, spreads widely to cover the ground, creates a flowery border or takes over your trellises. It also grows very well in pots on balconies and patios.

All parts of the plant are edible: the leaves and flowers in salads, as well as the seeds, pickled in vinegar like capers. It does attract aphids, which are fond of it. However, do not deprive yourself of this beautiful plant: in the vegetable garden and orchard, it is an advantage as it diverts pests (while providing valuable food for ladybird larvae) and thus protects your crops.

Planting and care

Sow Nasturtiums directly outdoors, in their final location, from March to May. Choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil that has been properly prepared beforehand. Sow the nasturtium seeds at a depth of 2cm (1in) in rows spaced 30cm (12in) apart, covering the seeds with an equal thickness of soil. Water the soil regularly, especially during dry periods. Germination usually takes 7 to 12 days.

When the young plants are large enough to handle, thin them to leave one plant every 30cm (12in). You can also sow Nasturtiums indoors at a temperature of 15-25°C (59-77°F). Once the nasturtium plants are big enough to handle, transplant them and grow them in cooler conditions until they reach a sufficient size to be planted outdoors. This operation should be done after all risk of frost has passed.

Nasturtiums prefer a fresh, well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. They are often attacked by aphids and cabbage white butterflies. Spraying a solution made of traditional black soap and water (4 to 5 cc / 1 liter of water) will help limit the damage in case of a massive aphid infestation.
