Re: Nasturtiums

I tried them a couple of times here, Cathy, because I love the leaves and seeds. They either couldn't take the heat or my husbanding or both. My mother, who lived in Santa Cruz, had several that grew to 3 feet by 3 feet in size. I figure that must be the idea climate for them.

I was going to suggest to my gardening challenged daughter in Wichita Falls, TX, that she might plant some nasturtiums, but I seem to recall that they don't like hot summers. Any of you in that part of the country or any place with similar weather grow them?
