Dwarf Nasturtium - Black velvet

Tropaeolum majus

This is a dark red bush Dwarf Nasturtium with classic flowers in beautiful shades of red, burgundy, and dark purple. A fantastic variety that, with its unique color, quickly brightens up pots and flower beds. An easy-to-grow type that can be cultivated both outdoors and indoors. If you have a brighter south-facing windowsill, you can even grow this variety all year-round.

Both the leaves and the enchanting flowers are edible, making Black Velvet the perfect garnish variety. Imagine a caprese salad topped with both basil and the green nasturtium leaves, plus the stunning burgundy flowers – magical, isn’t it?
