You’re right about them being hearty! We planted some this spring in a pot on our patio and my 3 year old thought it would be a good idea to water them with her bubbles! I thought for sure we would not get any flowers, but sure enough they have been blooming all summer and are still going strong!

I used Nasturtium & Pansy to decorate a wedding cake for a client. She loved the colors and the fact that they were organic, so they could be eaten, bu her guests.

I remember my mom putting these in our salad when I was a little girl and being so amazed that I could eat it. In the end, it tasted quite like a flower would, I suppose :) But so pretty and a super fun memory of my mom showing me something cool and amazing that I never knew before…

Great pictures of your little one. Such pretty flowers. I can’t wait to grow more flowers next summer when my kids are bigger. This is a great idea to grow some to use in salads.

I’ve seen these used on cupcakes too. They are a great way to brighten up a dish. So pretty, thanks for sharing!
