How to Grow:
Start seed indoors in pots 4-6 weeks before last frost; transplant out after all danger of frost has passed. Nasturtiums are very sensitive to cold; wait until weather has warmed to transplant outside. Provide a strong trellis or support for vines to climb.
Harvesting/Vase Life:
Harvest flowers just as they are opening for the longest vase life. If using the foliage, pick individual leaves or full vines once they become leathery or firm to the touch. Both flowers and foliage will persist 7-10 days in the vase, even longer if preservative is used.
