  • There is a downloadable information sheet and recipes on the link.
  • These darlings come in several colors, I love all of them.
  • The happy round leaves just dance in the garden...and grow in and around other plants.
  • The small round leaves put me in the mind of lotus'....which we can't grow here...but nasturtiums grow almost everywhere.
  • How beautiful are these nasturtiums as a garnish next to my sauteed cabbage and roasted red peppers?

Nasturtiums

I've been growing nasturtiums for years in my garden. I love these versatile plants. Not only are they a savored favorite of the little hummingbirds, but they are chalked full of vitamins ...»
and nutrients. I use them for salads, garnishes and appetizers. The entire plant is edible...not to mention beautiful in the garden. #gardening

  • Our new Fothergilla bush is flowering this month, and goes so nicely with the Euphorbia!
  • This pretty patch work is of a lungwort (Pulmonaria) and a wood spurge (Euphorbia).
  • Tulip 'White Parrot'...Parrot tulips are known for their unusual markings and shape. It is a nice, frilly addition to the front of the sunny end of this garden that is mostly in shade.

Gardening: Do the herbs keep their flavor when dried this way?

I usually dry herbs by hanging them on a drying rack in my kitchen and they retain their flavor very well. Do micro-dried herbs also maintain their flavor?
