Description

The Root'd E001 Nasturtium Alaska Edible Flower - 70 Seeds is a pack of bright colour flowering seeds just waiting to be planted and eaten. The Nasturtium Alaska (Tropaeolum majus) is a popular variety of nasturtium flower known for its vibrant colours and edible nature. The Alaska variety specifically features beautiful, variegated leaves in shades of green and white, adding an extra visual appeal to the plant.

The flowers themselves come in vibrant shades of orange, yellow, and red, making them a visually striking addition to any culinary creation. Nasturtium flowers have a peppery and slightly spicy flavour, similar to watercress, which adds a unique and tangy taste to dishes. Both the flowers and leaves of Nasturtium Alaska can be consumed and used as a decorative element in salads, sandwiches, and hors d'oeuvres. They can also be used to infuse oils, create flavoured vinegar, or even garnish desserts. Aside from their culinary use, nasturtium flowers are also valued for their potential medicinal properties, including their antibacterial and antioxidant effects. When using nasturtium flowers as an edible flower, it is important to ensure that they have not been treated with any pesticides or chemicals. Nasturtium Alaska edible flowers bring not only aesthetic beauty but also a peppery kick to various culinary dishes, adding a delightful twist to both the visual presentation and taste experience.

Growing Notes: Seeds can be sown outdoors after the last severe frost or started indoors 2 to 3 weeks before the last expected frost.
