Double Delight Cream Nasturtium

Light yellow petals form semi-double to double flowers. We pick this variety because of its deeper shaded yellow flowers and mounding foliage, whereas, Moonlight our other yellow nasturtium exhibits a lighter shade of yellow, more on the cream side, and a spreading habit.   30 seeds   PLANTING Tropaeolum majus Annual Germination: 10-12 days, soaking seeds overnight aids germination Seed Planting Depth: Sow 1/2” deep Starting Indoors: Start indoors 2-4 weeks before the last frost. Provide 60-65ºF soil temperatures until germination. Using individual biodegradable peat/cow pots/paper pots helps to reduce root damage when transplanting. Transplant 8-10” apart after the last frost date.

Deadheading is not necessary but promotes vigorous blooms. When growing in containers they might need to be pruned back during the middle of the season to maintain their shape and watered more frequently
