Add vibrant color to your garden with Dwarf Jewel Mix Nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus), a compact variety known for its bright, jewel-toned flowers in shades of red, orange, yellow, and cream. These cheerful blooms not only brighten up garden beds and borders but also make an excellent choice for edging and hanging baskets. Both the flowers and leaves are edible, with a peppery flavor that adds a unique twist to salads and garnishes.


This easy-to-grow variety thrives in average garden soil and requires minimal care. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can result in lush foliage with fewer blooms. To encourage continuous flowering, remove spent flowers regularly. If you're dealing with dreary winter days, consider growing these nasturtiums indoors in a sunny south window for a splash of color. Nasturtiums are also a great companion plant, helping to deter pests like aphids and whiteflies.

~ Sowing ~


When to Start Outside: 1-2 weeks after your average last frost date, when soil temperature is 55°F or warmer.


When to Start Inside: Not recommended; direct sowing is preferable.


Pre-Sowing Treatment: For best results, soak seeds in water for 12-24 hours before planting to soften the seed coat and encourage faster germination.


Planting Depth: Sow seeds ½ inch deep.


Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.


Light and Temperature: Nasturtiums prefer full sun but can tolerate partial shade, especially in hot climates.


Germination: Seeds typically germinate in 7-14 days.


~ Transplanting Seedlings Outdoors ~


Timing: Direct sowing is recommended, but if starting indoors, transplant after the risk of frost has passed.


Location: Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil.


Spacing: Space plants 10-12 inches apart to allow for adequate growth and air circulation.


Transplanting: Gently transplant seedlings into the prepared soil, ensuring the root ball is covered and the plant is stable. Water well after planting.


~ Growing ~


Watering: Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist. Nasturtiums prefer drier conditions once established but may need additional water during prolonged dry spells.


Fertilizing: Avoid fertilizing as this encourages foliage growth over flowers.


Pest and Disease Management: Nasturtiums are generally pest-resistant but can attract aphids. Use organic pest control methods such as neem oil or insecticidal soap if necessary.


Maintenance: Remove spent flowers to prolong blooming. Plants will spread and fill in large spaces, but because they lack tendrils, they should be guided if grown vertically.


~ Harvesting ~


When to Harvest: Harvest flowers, leaves, and seeds as needed throughout the growing season.


How to Harvest: Pinch off flowers and leaves as needed, taking care not to damage the plant. Harvest seeds when they are mature and firm.


Edible Uses: Both the flowers and leaves are edible and add a peppery flavor to salads, sandwiches, and garnishes. Seeds can be pickled as a substitute for capers.


Drying and Storing: Nasturtium seeds can be dried and stored for future planting or culinary use.


~ Seed Saving ~


Allow the seeds to mature on the plant before harvesting. Once dry, store the seeds in a cool, dry place for future planting.


~ Additional Information ~


Forage for Pollinators: Nasturtium flowers are highly attractive to bees, butterflies, and other pollinators.


Origin: Native to South America, particularly the Andes region.


Nomenclature: The common name "nasturtium" comes from the Latin words for "nose-twister," reflecting the plant’s peppery flavor.


History: Nasturtiums have a long history of being used for both culinary and medicinal purposes, with the entire plant, including flowers, leaves, and seeds, being edible.


Potential Toxicity: Non-toxic and safe for consumption by humans and pets.


Climate Adaptability: Thrives in warm climates and can be grown as a tender perennial in USDA zones 10 and warmer.

It actually is the best
Size: 0.27 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Mascara/Lash Primer
This mascara has apparently won awards, as it should have! This is the first mascara I have ever used in 20 years of wearing mascara that doesn't smudge around my eyes. The key is obviously the primer. I'm obsessive about priming something before painting it, because it makes all the difference. No wonder it makes all the difference with makeup, too. Great applicator. Product lasts for about 5 months for me, with near-daily use. Works great all the way until the tube is empty. Also thankful of course that it is a clean brand. About to purchase for the 4th time.

Great mascara with two small flaws
Size: 0.27 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Mascara/Lash Primer
I really like this mascara. I was using mascara which was not labeled as using clean ingredients. I switched to this one and after a few weeks, I noticed my eyelashes were longer, fuller, and healthier. The only problems I have had is it clumping my eyelashes quite a bit and it flaking throughout the day, adding to my permanent dark circles under my eyes. A lash comb fixes the clumping pretty easily and I have just learned to wipe under my eyes throughout the day to get the flakes off. Knowing the product I'm using is clean and safer than others is worth those two small inconveniences.

Long lost LOVE!
This is my absolute favorite outdoor tanning product so far! I purchased this for the first time during a vacation out of state and fell in love with the formula. It is a dry oil, so your skin is left smooth and silky - not sticky or slick. There is no SPF, so I do recommend using this when you've already developed a good base tan. I find that it is not as heavy feeling as similar formulas with SPF. The fragrance is the classic tropical Australian Gold scent that smells just as good hours after applying and is non-offensive. There are instant natural bronzers in this product thanks to the black walnut shell extract which provides a great glow after applying. The formula also boasts a "Colorboost Maximizer to speed up the tanning process. One of the ingredients: Tyrosine, is responsible for this claim. Tyrosine is an amino acid that melanin (responsible for the pigment of your skin) is made from. The formula also states melanin as an ingredient so the idea is to boost your skins natural ability to produce melanin, which is then darkened by your skin's reaction to UV Rays, thus speeding up your tan. Carrot root extract is another ingredient which is a great antioxidant for skin protection - and Vitamin E is obviously fabulous for skin. The best part: NO MINERAL OIL - so your skin can breathe and soak up nutrients, NOT pore clogging oils! Obviously this isn't a miracle product - but what it is is an affordable, reasonable outdoor tanning product that had some thought put into its formula for your skin's benefit. I believe it does boost my skin's natural ability to pick up color from the sun. And the light formula and great scent doesn't hurt! I absolutely can NOT find this product locally, so when I ran out of my first bottle I was so happy to find it on Amazon. Worth a try if you're looking for a reliable LIGHT outdoor tanning product that smells great!
