Nasturtium ‘Peach Melba’ is a beautiful, compact variety producing masses of delicate, creamy primrose-yellow flowers, each with a striking orange-red splash at its centre. The softly coloured blooms contrast beautifully with the rounded, blue-green foliage, creating a wonderfully fresh and romantic display.

 

With its naturally bushy, gently trailing habit, ‘Peach Melba’ is perfect for pots, hanging baskets, window boxes and the front of garden borders. Flowering throughout summer and into autumn, it's an easy-to-grow annual that provides months of colour with very little fuss.

 

Both the flowers and leaves are edible, adding a peppery flavour and beautiful colour to summer salads. The nectar-rich flowers are also loved by pollinators, making this a lovely addition to kitchen gardens and wildlife-friendly planting schemes.

 

Nasturtiums thrive in relatively poor, well-drained soil and flower best without excessive feeding, making them particularly easy to grow from seed.
