Growing Information
Planting
- Sow seeds directly outdoors after danger of frost has passed, as nasturtiums do not transplant well.
- Plant seeds ½ inch deep in well-draining soil that is not overly rich, spacing them 10–12 inches apart for proper airflow.
- Choose a location receiving full sun to partial shade to encourage abundant blooms and strong variegated foliage.
- Water newly sown seeds thoroughly, then keep the soil lightly moist until germination occurs in 7–14 days.
- For container growing, use pots with ample drainage and avoid heavy fertilization to preserve flower production.
- In cooler climates, warming the soil slightly before planting can help speed germination and early growth.
Maintenance
- Alaska Nasturtium grows best with minimal fertilization, as overly rich soil can reduce flower production.
- Plants remain compact with a mature height of roughly 10–12 inches and a spread of 12–14 inches, making them easy to manage.
- Mulching lightly around the base helps retain soil moisture without encouraging excessive leaf growth.
- Provide consistent but moderate watering, allowing soil to dry slightly between waterings.
- Remove spent flowers to support prolonged blooming if grown primarily for ornamental purposes.
