These beautifully illustrated packs of seeds make a lovely unique gift.
Nasturtium Blue Pepe is a unique European variety bred specifically for culinary use.
The flowers are edible and their bright-red hue makes an attractive addition to salads, as well as being perfect for garnishing stir fries. The leaves have a slightly peppery taste, similar to watercress. The flavour becomes more intense when the flowers are grown in sunnier, hotter weather.
Nasturtiums were first cultivated in Perù and were introduced to Europe by the Spanish conquistadores in the 16th century.
