Little Firebirds Hanging Basket Nasturtiums Flower Seeds

Little Firebirds turns a basket or window box into a shower of warm color. Deep burgundy, pumpkin, and rich coral blossoms tumble over variegated, lily-pad-shaped leaves, bringing both pattern and motion to patios and walkways.

The low, softly trailing plants fill containers quickly without needing support. Their edible flowers carry the familiar peppery flavor of nasturtiums with a gentle honeyed note, making the harvest as useful at the table as it is beautiful outdoors.
