Soil  Nasturtiums thrive in most soil types but prefer a well drained soil that is prepared with compost. Fertilising the plants excessively will put on mostly vegetative growth and flower development will be low, so feed your plants moderately.

Soil pH Level  6.5-7.5

Position  Prefer part shade.

How to Plant  For faster germination soak seeds overnight in water and then plant directly into the veggie patch. Keep watered until germination. Plants have a tendency to burn in direct afternoon sunlight, so morning sunlight is preferable.

Spacing 40cm – 60cm

Depth 2cm – 4cm

Companion Plants Nasturtiums are a great companion that can be planted amongst all edibles and under fruit trees.
