Growing Tips, Tricks and FAQs
Growing Tips
Golden Jewel nasturtium is ideal for containers, borders, and garden beds. It thrives in poor to average, well-draining soil and requires minimal maintenance. Avoid using rich soil or fertilizers, as they encourage foliage growth over flowers. Water moderately, keeping the soil slightly moist but not waterlogged, for vibrant blooms.
When to Grow
Golden Jewel should be planted outdoors after the last frost date in spring, as it is frost-sensitive. You can also start indoors. Sow 4 weeks before the last frost using biodegradable pots to reduce transplant shock. In warmer climates (zones 9-11), this variety can be grown year-round or as a cool-season annual during the winter months. Be sure to check your region’s last frost date for proper planting timing. If you’re unsure of your last frost date, consult our blog post ‘Our Experts Answer Questions, Share Resources.’
How to Sow and Plant
Soak seeds in warm water overnight before planting to improve germination. Sow seeds 1/2-1 inch deep and space them 8-12 inches apart in your garden or container. Germination typically takes 7-14 days under good conditions. For indoor sowing, use biodegradable pots to prevent root disturbance when transplanting outdoors. Once seedlings emerge, thin them to maintain proper airflow and spacing.
How to Grow
Golden Jewel nasturtium needs 6-8 hours of full sun daily for the best flower production, though it will tolerate partial shade. Water deeply once a week, increasing frequency during hot or dry periods, but avoid overwatering. Fertilizer is unnecessary and may lead to excessive leaf growth with fewer flowers. The compact, bushy growth habit of this variety makes it perfect as a ground cover or for use in small spaces. Deadhead spent blooms to promote continuous flowering throughout the season.
How to Save
- Nasturtiums will often reseed, but to save seeds, allow them to mature and fall to the ground.
- Collect them and store them in a cool, dark, dry place over the winter.
