My instructional growing videos are very thorough, I don't walk outside with a transplant in hand and read to you what I found on the Farmer's Almanac website. LOL I actually grow what I teach. :)

I know most people talk about the peppery flavor I find it more similar to the flavor of horseradish. Especially in the stems of the flower. Love it. This plant has been a Godsend for me. As with some plants, the stems are sometimes to chewy and hard to break down. Not that way with nasturtium stems. They chew up so easily and therefore easily digested. There are so many uses for this plant. I used it for a lung and bronchial condition. I can't even begin to tell you how much it's healed me. I was at a very scary point and we all need to learn more about all the wonderful things God has given us on this Earth. It's truly wonderful.
I have just tried taking the seeds often throughout the day for hay fever and I have had a clear nose for majority of the day! It is like horse radish.
I love it!
I mean this in the most sincerest innocent way.........
Your voice is as welcoming as a beautiful garden on a beautiful spring day
I must complement you on the way you present the articles and give us the exact amt. of info not to confuse us. Please continue to do the good jobs you are doing .
This is the best video I’ve come across regarding nasturtiums. Thank you muchly!!!
I knew about the nasturtium being edible but was unaware of the high levels of lutein. Good information for those of us with aging eyesight! I love the smell too!
Oh yes, so true! I failed to mention the fragrance. I grew one variety last year which was sooo fragrant. It smelled just like roses. Most of mine did not have such a strong smell. Of course I did not label the particular variety, so I do not know whaich one it was!! haha - I'm trying again this year and hope the same one regrows (mixed pack of seeds).
Here is a suggestion.
Place seed on a cotton ball, get it wet/damp. Place in baggie and wait for it to sprout as usual.
Much easier to plant the seedling and cotton ball at the same time.
Others have said sprout them in coffee filters. They don't stick like paper towels do. Cotton ball is great idea too - had not seen that one.
The queen of the flowers ,can’t live without them…..we didn’t have much sun this summer, I got giant lives just now got hew flowers
Will try to somehow mix them with the morning glory, the contrasting colour will look beautiful, so looking forward to for the spring
I eat few lives ,they tasted great,like garlic…..
Thanks for sharing 🌼💐
Just sowed my nasturtium a few days ago! Thanks for such a thorough and well composed video.
I see that I'm late to the party, but so glad to have found your post! I have been trying to grow "Nasties" for more years than I will publicly admit. Hence, my aforementioned nickname for them. Thank You from the bottom of my frustrated heart for setting me on the path to correctly growing and enjoying these beautiful and delicious little gems!
Welcome!
This video is so full of wonderful information, thank you. I also have macular degeneration and take a daily supplement. This is my first year growing nasturtium. I’m headed out to my garden now to pick a couple leaves to add to my salad today. Thank you so much! 👍🏻💕👍🏻
I appreciate the scope, range of the information in your videos. The steady improvement of content and video quality over the years is apparent.
I grew these flowers for the first time this summer. I absolutely love them and will definitely grow them again. your video is extremely helpful And interesting. I had no idea they could be eaten and had nutritional value I wear glasses, so I will definitely be serving these Beautiful petals and leaves with supper. Thanks again for sharing your valuable information. I’ll be waiting for new videos. Elaine Stevens ❤️❌⭕️
I am growing these as a first-time seed grower right now! I didn’t even know they were edible. Such a good video! Taught me so much!
Wonderful! Glad you enjoyed it!
I always appreciate how well presented your videos are. It really shows that you take the time to organize and edit your content for the viewer. It’s a rare quality for vlogs but much appreciated. This is another great one. Thank you!
wow amazing little Plant & flower with many benefits Glory to God! i thought of using this plant as a bait for my garden against leaf miners stumble on your video and changed my mind and perspective Thank You & God Bless!!!
your videos are always so well-put together. Just yesterday I was looking to find some flowers that would do well in zone 10, and you put this up today! Thank you so much!
Wonderful! Great timing huh? :) Happy Gardening!
One of my favorite plants, thank you for fun & informative video...
You are a research junkie like me and i love it!!! I love how provide education with your videos... with references of your research. So glad i subscribed! I’m growing nasturtium for the first time this year. The Alaska and Empress of India. Looking forward to the blooms!
This was interesting I didn't know that much about this plant. Thank you - Ruthie
thanks so much for taking the time to make this informative video! really great tips !
Such great information on how to start growing nasturtiums by seed and the many uses in foods as well!! Thank you so much!! 👍👍👍👍
I just found you on utube and you are a wealth of knowledge and a super great teacher, thank you bunches!,
REALLY enjoyed the in depth on these edible beauties. Thank you!
Absolutely wonderful video from someone who loves nasturtiums but is not really a gardener. Jean Kroeber from Germany
I love them! Thanks so much for the detailed information, and your meals look so good!!
Thank you for such an in-depth tutorial on this plant!
this is a fantastic video on how to grow from seed nasturtiums and I love how you go beyond and talk about lutein and nutritional value. thanks so much, I'm learning so much from you.
So nice of you
I've been growing and eating them ever since you talked about them in one of your old videos. This added information is so valuable! Thank you!!
Wonderful! I just love all the colors.
Thanks so much for your very detailed video. It's very helpful.
Wow! You did great on this video! I love this video, all of it was amazing, especially the facts about the benefits and all your homework on facts about Nasturtiums. Its so wonderful that you shared this with us! Please keep sharing with us! Oh and your voice is the voice of an angel! I can imagine just watching your videos after a long day, you would make it all go away and I will have happy thoughts. I hope every one appreciates all the hard work that it takes to put together an amazing video on youtube! Everyone that knows you should be thankful knowing such a wonderful person! Thank you dearly!
Thank you for being so thorough! I learned so much!
Wow the stir fry looks delicious!!! Great video ~ thank you!!
Hi! thanks! It was so good! I'll have to do a video on it.
Wow, I'm watching and enjoying this video over breakfast, Thanks for all the info! I got seeds this week and am definitely going to make the best of nasturtiums for now on.
Excellent method to get the seeds to crack and to care for the plants! I didn't even think of it, but I have used a matchbook striker before on smaller seeds. I need them to sprout ASAP as trap plants for my indoor garden. I've had ppl mock this method and call it a "middle school science project" method, but when seeds are as valuable as they can be as well hard to come by, -my germination rate is over 99%. Thanks for showing the coco as well! Great video!
This is a great video! You presented the information perfectly. Thank you
I have some seed from a Polish lady I knew who gave them to me 5 years ago. Just found them today. I will try soaking them tonight and sow them in my raised beds . Thanks
Thankyou I really appreciate what you did here.
I love growing these! About to plant them here in Germany. Love how detailed and beautiful your videos are!
Thank you! i am looking forward to growing them in the summer. I have to wait a few more months.... Happy Gardening!
Always loved nashturtiums, thank you for the great information.
Super. And your long list of links in the video notes are a great source of good information. Thanks!
Thank you for this video. You have done so much research. I have bought some salmon pink nasturtium and can’t wait to start end of March. Learnt so much from you. Amazing work!
You are so welcome!
You are an encyclopedia of garden knowledge. Wonderful information in such a well done video, thank you!
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it.
So glad I found this video. I have planted nasturtiums this year and was wondering what to expect and when to put in a larger growing space.
This video was awesome! I love how you educate us, show us how to grow, then cook with it! Love your videos and this channel! I love seeing notifications from you! ☺God Bless!
Thank you so much!
EXCELLENT VIDEO. Watch it to the end.
Thank you so much for your wonderful info! And I am enjoying these this Summer (and I hope thru Fall) - primarily because of you! Gratitude & hugs sent your way!
The quality of your videos continue to improve- thank you so much for all of the work that you put into them!! They are so comprehensive and you literally give all of the information that other videos leave me searching the internet for lol. I've started branching out to more and more flowers (both edible and not) for the garden, I don't know why but for some reason I never gravitated towards them, mostly fruits and vegetables. This year is the first year I have a lot of flowers and the yard is abundant with butterflies, bees, wasps and other pollinators. I've even started seeing "good" bugs helping me out by keeping the "bad" bugs at bay.
Thank you! Your garden sounds beautiful! Flowers really make a garden come to life.
Wasps, as I understand them, are actually one of the "good" bugs. Understandably, you don't want an abundance of those guys, though!!!!
My mom gave me some nasturtium seeds, thank you for making this video.
What an informative video! I found all the links and the discussion of the lutein content in nasturtiums helpful. Thanks so much for sharing :)
Thank you so much! :)
thanks for that! I have to plant it out and another one in my seed starting pot. but you made me want to plant some more!
These flowers would look delicious in a spring roll.
Great site. Poor man capers are magnificent!
I have only 52 year of experience!! 😂
Nice work. Really appreciate your genuine translation of the basic facts.👍😊😂🇦🇺
Really enjoyed your post. Thank you !!!
I was looking for more sources for vitamin a and now that I know the nasturtium can help out that's great!
This was a great video. I didn’t know anything about this flower. Had no idea you could eat it and I couldn’t make it grow. So I really should have just it alone. Wow thanks great video🌸
I have "Jewel Blend" Nasturtiums growing in with vegetables & other flowers in containers on my apartment's front porch! I can hardly wait until they bloom!!
So well researched with lots of visuals . Very helpful, thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Wow,how educational!!Thank you for this information!!!
Glad it was helpful!
Since this video I’ve planted nasturtiums in 2021 and 2022. Needless to say I absolutely love them! Flourishes in my garden I’ll never NOT have them
My favorite is the yeti variety! All are so beautiful. Thank you for all of this detail!
You are so welcome!

Amazing information. Thank you so much for sharing such useful information on Nasturtiums.
Glad it was helpful!

I know this an old video but I hope your eyesight continues to be stable. I also have a problem with the same part of me retina in both eyes. It's called Stargardt Disease. So early onset macular degeneration. I'm not legally blind quite yet but gardening is something I continue to do and love even as my eyesight declines.
Very interesting, thank you so much!
Glad you enjoyed it!
My daughter sent me some Nasturtium seeds, I planted them and love them, I've had pink, yellow, red, orange flowers from these seeds. Thank you for the informative video, I wasn't sure how to prune them, and I found they were getting too much sun. Thanks to you, I now know. I will be gentle. LOL
Wonderful!
Awesome! Thanks!
That is so informative 💕 Thank you so much 😊
Thank you, happy to help.
Beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
Very informative video. Thank you for taking the time to make it and for sharing it with us!
Thanks so much. I have many more on my channel very similar to this one and more to come!
Rainbow Gardens I have spent many hours the past couple days watching your videos trying to catch up since I am just finding you. I look forward to more!
Your nasturtium are so beautiful! Lovely accent too :) This video was so well done and informative. I'm in zone 7 and just started growing nasturtium this year and bought Burpee "jewel mix" seeds. I had read they do well in shade so I tried placing their containers in the shade. At first they did well but then I started getting a lot of yellowing leaves after a month or so but I planted them kinda late in the Spring so they were flowering through June/July. I wasn't sure if maybe they were getting too much sun or not enough water but after watching your video I think it was just too hot for them. They're such beautiful flowers though and I love them so I will grow more next year.
I forgot to add, I loved that pretty fountain you had towards the end of the video? Where did you buy it?
Such great information! I need to get my seed packet planted. Your pics were beautiful! Thanks, Donna!
Thank you so much!
Hi Donna, Thank you for another great video. I am going to give pre-sprouting a try. I know it is a bit late, being nearly May, but these are just so lovely. Happy Gardening!
I put seeds in a moist baggie in an envelope. Really helps get them going (first root).
amazing!
Thank you ! Got some seeds today
Thanks for sharing very informative.. just bought Alaska today 😍 I think I have to buy more 😁
Wow .. thats pretty detailed and very well planned and edited video .. my first on this channel .. I am hooked. I think I will be busy watching the other videos for this whole week :0)
Thank you!
Mashua are so beautiful, I'd love to hear back on how they do. I have the dwarf orange blooms. Didn't know about the Elizabeth Linnaeus Effect, but I have noted how amazing they look in the garden (because of their bright color). I'm excited to collect the seeds and bring them back to my local seed lending library. There is a packet for sale called 'Night and Day' variety, which has cream colored and reddish-black mixed. I love to see contrast in the flower beds.
thank you, im 47 yrs young and in the last 4 years ,i suddendly needed glasses and was told my eyes are ten years older than my actual age, over the last four years ive gone from needing glasses to read only to now i cannot read a single letter unless its half an inch big and now images are becoming blurry without the glasses too, so this is fantastic news as i have a heap of theses lil beauties growing in my pots gardens and hanging baskets. i will be eating theses daily now.
