A compact, low grower at just eight inches tall, Alaska Salmon Nasturtium Seeds are yet another addition to the multi-talented nasturtium family. Known for thriving in less-than-optimal conditions, nasturtiums continue to offer low-growing color to hillsides, fields, and vegetable gardens. Alaska Salmon Nasturtiums seem to float their apricot-colored blooms above wonderfully variegated leaves. Tuck some seeds in where you need a pop of color as Alaska Salmon will remain compact.

  • Compact, mounding habit
  • Soft salmon flowers and variegated leaves are both edible
  • Ideal for containers and small-space gardens
