This is all a single nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus) I planted! A giant mound of spicy satellite dishes.

Nasturtiums are a prime example of how pseudo-scientific names can be extremely confusing. This fiery flower is called a Nasturtium, which most plant lovers assume is its scientific name. Guess again - the genus Nasturtium is in fact the genus of the watercresses, a different type of plant (Nasturtium microphyllum and Nasturtium officinale) that grows along brooks. So how did this pretty and tasty garden flower
(Tropaeolum majus) end up being called “Nasturtium “ of all things? The answer is in the taste of the spicy leaves and flowers which are used as a easier to obtain substitute for real watercress.

Poured out an old bag of seed mix with climbing annuals when my hornbeam hedge died. Look at 'em!

Plant of the Day
Monday 29 August 2022
In this garden the annual climber Tropaeolum majus (nasturtium, Indian-cress) is making a show in late summer as it scrambles up this stone wall. The circular leaves are supported by a central leaf stalk and the flowers come in shades of red, yellow and orange. The foliage and flowers are edible with a distinct peppery flavor similar to radishes.
