Nasturtium Alaska Mix Seeds
$3.90
Unit price perTropaeolum majus
Alaska Mix Nasturtium is a colourful compact heirloom variety prized for its striking variegated foliage and vibrant blooms in shades of yellow, orange, scarlet and deep red. Unlike trailing nasturtiums, this bushy form remains neat and compact, making it ideal for garden borders, containers, hanging baskets and vegetable gardens.
The attractive cream and green marbled leaves provide ornamental interest even before flowering begins. Both the flowers and leaves are edible, adding a peppery flavour to salads, sandwiches and garnishes. Nasturtiums are also valued as companion plants, attracting pollinators and beneficial insects while helping to draw aphids away from nearby vegetables.
Easy to grow and tolerant of poor soils, Alaska Mix performs best when not overfed, as excessive fertility encourages foliage growth at the expense of flowers.
Approximately 8 seeds per gram
Approximately 25 seeds per packet
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: April to August
Subtropics: March to September
Mild climates: March to October
Cold climates: September to January
Planting / Sowing
Sow seed directly into the garden 10–15 mm deep in a sunny to partly shaded position. Seeds germinate best when the soil is kept evenly moist. Space plants 25–30 cm apart. Nasturtiums prefer well-drained soil and generally flower more prolifically in soils that are not overly rich. Harvest flowers and leaves regularly to encourage continued blooming throughout the season.
Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.

FLOWER SEEDS WITH EDEN
Flower seeds: As fellow gardening enthusiasts we share the love for planting and nurturing our own flowers in addition to our veggie gardens. Our carefully selected range of flower seeds, available for convenient online purchase, holds a special place in our hearts. Like the endangered vegetables we've championed, these flower varieties face the risk of vanishing forever. Some of these older strains are incredibly rare, and it's a source of immense pride for us to offer and deliver these precious flower seeds Australia-wide.
