In order for curly nasturtium to please with its abundant flowering and splendor of the bush, you should adhere to some secrets when keeping it. These secrets will help amateur flower growers when planting flowers for the first time, and in subsequent times of planting this plant, everything will be much easier.

Secondly, nasturtiums should be sown immediately for permanent residence, and if seedlings are used for landscaping, then they should be immediately planted in peat pots.
