The Nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus) is one of the most popular plants in our gardens. Their circular petals form a bright sea of color in red, yellow, orange or cream from July to late autumn. The very easy-care and fairly undemanding flower thrives best in a warm and sunny location, but also copes well in partial shade. There are no special conditions for the ground. Humus rich and deep soil naturally helps with growth. The flowers and leaves are due to their high content of vitamin C and the antibiotic effect of the mustard oil glycosides contained in them as healthy: nasturtium is an excellent medicinal plant against cough and bronchitis, against throat and pharyngeal inflammation, because it has an expectorant and the immune system strengthens. The edible ingredients are used for salads, egg dishes or herbal butter and give a spicy, peppery-spicy flavor.
