Tropaeolum Majus, commonly known as Nasturtium, is an annual plant that is native to South and Central America. The plant has bright, showy flowers in shades of orange, yellow and red, and the leaves are a deep green. The plant is also edible, with its leaves and flowers both being used in salads or to flavor sauces.
Nasturtiums are easy to grow and require minimal care. They are drought tolerant and thrive in soil that is not overly rich, preferring well-drained soil and full sun. They are often used as a groundcover, as they spread quickly and produce a carpet of beautiful blooms.
The Nasturtium also produces an edible seed, which is often referred to as a “nasturtium caper”. The seeds are small and have a flavor similar to capers, making them a great addition to salads and other dishes. They can also be pickled or used to make a spicy condiment.
Nasturtiums are not only beautiful and edible, they are also beneficial to other plants. They attract beneficial insects such as ladybugs and lacewings, which feed on pests that can damage other plants. They also help to improve the soil, as they add nitrogen and other nutrients to the soil as they grow.
Finally, Nasturtiums are easy to propagate, making them an ideal choice for gardeners. They can be grown from seed or cuttings, and can be divided in the spring to produce more plants. With care and attention, they will provide a colorful display in the garden for many years to come.
