Sow seeds about 1/2" deep and 10-12" apart in the garden if direct sowing. If starting indoors, transplant after seedlings emerge, after 7-10 days, and space as you would if direct sowing.

If maintaining your nasturtiums in containers, they'll need to be trimmed back occasionally to promote new foliage.
