Absolutely loved these! Snipped and fed to my lizard DAILY. They kept coming back over and over. Will buy and plant again. Started inside in compostable pots- when transplanting I never touched the roots- I tore the bottom off and placed it right in my garden bed.

Unfortunately, not a single seed from this variety germinated. All my other nasturtium varieties germinated and bloomed. I can't say its user error because I've grown nasturtium for years and have had success with all varieties. This was my first time growing Butterscotch and I believe I may have received faulty seeds. I won't be purchasing this variety again unfortunately. Really disappointed.

Only sporadic germination. Did not flourish even with feeding and watering.

Ordered 2 pkts of Butterscotch Nasturtiums weeks apart. Ordered the second pkt after sowing the first and not a single seed (of 30) germinated. Second pkt-only 3 seeds (of 30) germinated but only one plant survived.
