Prepare a weed-reduced seedbed for Amazon Jewel Climbing Nasturtium Flower and use the recorded planting season, depth, and light requirements. Press shallow-sown seed into good soil contact and keep the seed zone from drying during establishment. Thin or transplant only when the growth habit and spacing call for it. Leave enough room for mature width and air movement. Bloom timing and final height can shift with sowing date, climate, soil, moisture, and competition, so use listed figures as planning ranges.

Place Amazon Jewel Climbing Nasturtium Flower where its recorded height and growth habit fit the surrounding planting. Shorter companions can be positioned toward bed edges, while taller stems need room where they will not shade small seedlings too early. If cutting flowers, harvest with clean tools at the stage appropriate to the bloom form. If leaving flowers in place, observe how bloom sequence changes through the season and record which sowing date performed best at the site.

Planting & Care

Soil & Water: Climbing nasturtiums are easy to grow in any well-drained soil. Fertilizer is usually not necessary and too much nitrogen will create bountiful foliage without much flowering. You'll need to train young plants onto their supports with loose ties, then they'll climb easily and bloom repeat. Do not let plants dry out during blooming season.

Planting & Growing:To Start Outdoors: Sow seeds in spring, once all danger of frost is over, in full sun (or part shade in hot climates). Poke seeds into well-worked soil about 1" deep and 3 - 4" apart. Press soil firmly over the seeds and keep moist. When seedlings are large enough to handle, thin to stand 10" apart, or 6 - 8" apart if training seedlings up vertical supports. To Start Early Indoors: Sow 2 seeds in individual 4" pots of well-drained seed starting mix 3 weeks before last expected frost date. Cover 1" deep. Provide a strong light source. When seedlings have several sets of leaves, pinch out the weaker seedling leaving 1 seedling per pot. When weather is evenly in the 50's, gradually acclimate to outdoor conditions. Transplant as above in full sun.
