Product information

    Grow your own dwarf Nasturtiums for profusion of pretty red blooms all summer long! 'Princess of India' is a stunning dwarf selection of the ever-popular ‘Empress of India’, producing compact and bushy plants with attractive small dark foliage and masses of deep red blooms. Easy to grow, Nasturtium 'Princess of India' will create a fabulous free-flowering summer display in your borders or containers. Culinary note: the peppery flavour of the leaves and colourful flowers will enrich salads and the unripe seeds can used like capers – delicious combined with cream cheese or butter in canapés.Sow outdoors where they are to flower. Prepare the ground well and rake to a fine tilth before sowing. Sow 20mm ( 3/4in) deep, in rows 30cm (12in) apart. For earlier flowering: Sow seed, 1cm (1/2") deep, 3 seeds per 7.5cm (3in) pot, in free-draining, damp seed compost. Place at 20-29C (68-86F) until after germination. Gradually acclimatise to outdoor conditions before planting out after risk of frost. Before planting into containers, ensure plants are well rooted in their pots. When large enough to handle, thin out seedlings to 23cm (9in) apart.Product specifications:Position: Full SunHeight: Up to 25cm when fully establishedSpread: Up to 35cm when fully establishedSupplied as 1x packet Nasturtium 'Princess of India' (approx. 30 seeds)Flowering period: June to SeptemberImages shown are for guidance only of the expected results from plants upon maturity.
