These nasturtiums are huge and lovely. I have them cascading out of the raised beds and not only do the insects love them, I love having loads of edible flowers.

I have had 100 percent germination of the Jewel Blend. I started both direct and indoor seeding. So far, the plants seem to be doing well. I did not get any germination on the Fiesta Blend. It is one of the packages of seeds that I believe is defected. I am trying again though. In fact, it was today, that I seeded some. I'm not sure if it's too late though in my area.

I've grown several varieties of BI nasturtiums, including this blend, in beds and once in pots as shown here. For the most part they were ornamental, but I did add the blooms to a salad once at a festive meal, adding a beautiful edible touch.

- AdamVerified ReviewerRated 2 out of 5 starsDec 21, 2025Might be the wrong seeds in the packet...
I bought these in 2024. I grew them with no issues but found they were all orange. I had forgotten that they were supposed to be a variety of colors at the time and didn't think anything of it. When fall came and I harvested seeds, I pulled out the original seed packet to jot down details and discovered that they should have been a variety of colors instead. The seeds then grew into the described blend of colors for 2025. I can only guess that there was a mix-up in 2024 and I received a hybrid that were all orange but the next generation randomized the genetics which netted me the variety of colors. Not sure if anyone else reported this for 2024.
