Nasturtium Milkmaid - seed
Milkmaid nasturtiums have unusual full-cream flowers to gently harmonise with almost any colour scheme, and give you classy baskets and planters. You can also eat the leaves and flowers in salads!
Nasturtiums are really easy to grow with big seeds even little bubs can handle, and they pop up in as little as 10 weeks giving you fast vibrant colour. They can grow in hot sun and dry poor soil too, which makes them very useful for our gardens.
