Nasturtium 'Canary Creeper'

This nasturtium has a rich history dating back to ancient times when they grew wild in Peru and Ecuador. Thriving in temperate climates, these flowers were discovered in the 1800s and later introduced as a vine for home gardens in the United States. Nowadays, Nasturtium 'Canary Creeper' is cultivated in gardens worldwide for its visual appeal and culinary aesthetic. A valuable companion plant, train up a trellis or support, or allow to sprawl along the ground as a groundcover to prevent weed growth and competition, and to attract beneficial insects like bees and butterflies to your garden.
