Many people like to keep a potted flower indoors, as it not only brings the surrounding environment to life and fills it with greenery, but also lifts the spirits and eases the stress of work. Some friends prefer looking at green leaves, while others prefer looking at flowers. If you are one of those who love flowers, you might as well choose this flower: it easily fills its pot, is beautiful and easy to grow, and in 2 months grows into a cascade of yellow blooms and green foliage!

This flower is called nasturtium. It is a perennial trailing plant, with mostly single-petaled flowers in many colors, including purplish red, orange-yellow, cream yellow and so on. The blooms are full in shape, bright and beautiful, making it an excellent choice for indoor potted plants.

It has strong vitality and adapts well to its environment, and can be grown with minimal care. Place it up high or hang it up to grow, and it will easily grow into a green cascade!

Nasturtium can bloom in all four seasons, flowering especially freely. A single bloom stays open for a long time, lasting about ten days, and it produces a large number of flowers at once, making it extremely easy to fill its pot.

For everyday care of nasturtium, place it in a spot with plenty of sunlight and good ventilation. Its leaves look like small lotus leaves; with sufficient light, the leaves will also become more emerald green, round and glossy, and it will keep blooming continuously.

It is fairly tolerant of poor soil, but for the soil you should choose a loose, well-draining sandy soil. It greatly fears waterlogging; once water accumulates, it easily causes root rot.

To make it bloom more at one time, you can apply liquid fertilizer 2 to 3 times during the bud stage. For example, burying a few granules of slow-release compound fertilizer in the potting soil can also produce good results.

It is usually propagated by sowing seeds. If you want nasturtium to bloom around New Year's Day and the Spring Festival, you can sow the seeds in August or September, and then it will bloom in full glory at the Spring Festival, very festive and full of holiday spirit.

That is all for today's sharing about nasturtium!
