Outsidepride Mahogany Black Velvet Climbing Vine Flower Seeds

Nasturtiums, a vibrant annual vining plant, thrive in USDA Zones 3 to 10, offering a wide variety of uses, from beds and containers to window boxes and trellises. Boasting brilliant, mahogany-brown blooms that measure approximately 2 inches in diameter, these plants stand out against their mounding, green foliage, creating a stunning display when grown from seeds. The Black Velvet Nasturtiums, a mounding variety, reach a modest height of 12 to 16 inches.

Hummingbirds are often attracted to these beautiful plants, making them a delightful addition to any garden. Nasturtiums prefer a full-sun location in cooler climates, but for the hottest regions, afternoon shade is recommended to provide the plants with some relief from the intense heat.

Tropaeolum, the botanical name for nasturtiums, can be grown as an annual in any location, but they will only survive as perennials in frost-free zones. Caring for these plants is straightforward, as they require no fertilizing and only a regular watering schedule, allowing the soil to dry out between irrigations.

To prepare for sowing, the seeds should be soaked overnight in warm water. The following day, plant the flower seeds 1/2 inch deep in weed-free, fine and light soil, with 1 to 2 seeds per plant, also planted 1/2 inch deep.

Nasturtiums are a versatile and eye-catching addition to any garden, offering a wide range of uses and a low-maintenance care routine. Their vibrant blooms and mounding foliage make them a popular choice for gardeners, while their ability to attract hummingbirds adds to their charm. Whether grown in beds, containers, or window boxes, these plants are sure to bring a touch of natural beauty to any outdoor space.
