The compact nasturtium Tropaeolum minus 'Jewel Cherry Rose' enchants with pink, bowl-shaped flowers and dark green, rounded foliage. This variety is perfect for pots, window boxes, and raised herb gardens, as it is low-trailing and forms dense carpets that suppress weeds. The edible flowers and leaves add a touch of freshness to salads and cocktails with their mild, peppery flavor and vibrant color. Blooming from June to September, it's an easy-care beauty for bees and flower lovers alike!
