Mr Fothergills Nasturtium Tom Thumb Seeds (Tropaeolum majus) are a popular choice for gardeners looking for easy, dependable colour with minimal effort. This variety produces masses of vibrant flowers held above attractive green foliage, creating a bold display that works well in pots, window boxes and borders. The lightly trailing habit also allows plants to spill gently over the edges of containers or decorate trellis and larger tubs.
Well known for their toughness, Tom Thumb nasturtiums perform best in full sun and cope well with less fertile soils, often flowering more freely when not overfed. In addition to their ornamental value, the nectar-rich blooms attract bees and butterflies, supporting garden wildlife throughout the summer months. Easy to establish and quick to flower, they are suitable for gardeners of all experience levels.
