• Nasturtiums do best in areas with relatively cool summers, but usually, they can grow anywhere.
• Nasturtiums cut for vases often root in water.
• Nasturtiums are pretty annuals to use as edgings or at the front of a flower bed with other low-growing annuals and perennials. Allow plants to trail over walls or raised beds, and use them to add summertime color to rock gardens. They also look beautiful in containers and window boxes.
