The right floor

Nasturtium likes a slightly loamy, not particularly nutrient-rich soil, which may also be somewhat calcareous and slightly sandy. The sowing can be done after the Eisheiligen directly into the field. If this time is too late, you can prefer the nasturtium in a pot. For this garden soil or special cultivation soil can be used.

The seeds

They get seeds of nasturtium in the supermarket, but only the most common varieties. If you want something special, look for it in garden centers or seeds afterwards. You can also order the seeds of very decorative and unusual species of nasturtium from some of the specialist retailers on the Internet. It is definitely worth investing a little time in the search.

The sowing

Nasturtium is very easy to grow from seed. These are so big that they are great for getting stuck individually. So you can sow them about mid-May after the Eisheiligen right at their final location. After about one to two weeks, the first seedlings should show up.

Of course it is also possible to prefer the nasturtium in pots as early as March. Put two or three seeds in a pot for each. After you have done this well, cover the pot with foil or put a large mason jar over it until the seeds are germinated.

The planting out

As soon as the ice saints are over in mid-May, you can put their nasturtium in the field. Give her a sunny to partially shaded location, where she will feel very comfortable. But it even thrives in the shade or on the north wall of your home. Especially at these places you will surely appreciate their decorative flowers.

Nasturtium is also great for planting a decorative screen. For this, give a rank aid to the page. You can do that at sowing or later. However, the plant should not be too old and have not yet formed long tendrils.
