As for nasturtiums, here in Tacoma, WA (zone 7) they seem to bloom from
late June onward until a hard frost kill them

They almost always have some blooms on them but they definitely
bloom more in the summer (temps in the low 70s). Could your nasturtiums be
too hot? Try shading their feet a little. My grandma's grow under a huge
camelia shrub so their feet never get too warm.

Good morning.

Nasturtiums like to grow in rather poor soil.  If the soil is too rich you
get all lush green and very few blooms.  Poor soil and apparently you get
greens as well as lovely flowers.

Hope this is correct.
Have a good day and happy gardening to those of you that can see ANYTHING
except 5 feet of snow....
