Tropaeolum minus 'Tip Top Alaska Salmon' (Nasturtium)

C$10.00Price
  • Nasturtia (really Tropaeolum) are handsome and multipurpose plants in the landscape and as food.  Flowers, leaves and seeds are edible, with a distinctive, spicy flavour.  Green seeds (right after flower petals have fallen away) can be pickled as a delicious substitute for capers.
