Nasturtium Major leaves are eaten mixed with salads, and the flowers are used as decorations for dishes and raw vegetables. The flower buds are rich in vitamin C and natural sulfur. Pickled in vinegar, they are used as a seasoning like capers. Nasturtium Major produces beautiful, colorful masses of vegetation that easily cover hidden corners in the garden. They attract aphids and therefore serve as a "trap plant." Nasturtium Major is a dwarf variety with abundant flowers that appear in June.
