Nasturtium Whirlybird Mix Seeds
$3.90
Unit price perTropaeolum majus
Whirlybird Mix is a compact, non-trailing Nasturtium producing masses of brightly coloured flowers held prominently above the foliage. The cheerful mixture includes warm shades of yellow, gold, orange, red and cream, creating a vibrant display throughout the warmer months.
Unlike trailing Nasturtiums, Whirlybird forms a neat, bushy plant, making it particularly well suited to borders, edging, containers and productive garden beds. The flowers attract bees and other pollinating insects, while the rounded foliage provides an attractive backdrop to the colourful blooms.
Both the flowers and leaves are edible, with a distinctive peppery flavour. Flowers make a colourful garnish for salads and savoury dishes, while young leaves can be added to salads or used much like other peppery greens.
Easy to grow and quick to flower, Nasturtiums perform best in full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. Avoid excessive fertiliser, particularly nitrogen, which can encourage abundant foliage at the expense of flowers.
Seed count: approximately 8 seeds/g
Approximately 16 seeds per packet
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: Autumn to winter
Subtropics: Autumn to spring
Mild climates: Autumn and spring

Planting / Sowing

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.
