This beautiful rose colour is uncommon in nasturtiums. With its non-trailing and mounded habit, Baby Rosé is perfect for containers, window boxes, mixed combinations, and small space gardens. The petite 2″ aromatic flowers are perfect sprinkled in salads or used as garnishes. The dark-green foliage has a peppery flavour. Fleuroselect Gold Medal winner and All American Selections award winner.
The plants bloom profusely and the flowers remain upright facing from late spring until first hard frost in the fall. Nasturtiums are known for drawing in pollinators such as hummingbirds, butterflies and bees. The beneficial insect plants serve as a great trap crop for aphids and effectively repel cucumber beetles, squash beetles, Mexican bean beetles, and whiteflies. They also make a valuable companion plant for Brassicas (such as cabbage, broccoli, and kale), cucumbers, melons, radishes, and tomatoes.
