Last spring I started about a dozen Nasturtium seeds indoors so I could plant them in our backyard garden once the weather turned a bit warmer.
I had enough to put a row in front of our clematis vines which we have in a raised bed garden. The rest I kept until I was finished created a new flower garden for a shrub we bought.
When it was sitting there as just a pile of dirt Jenny started calling the burial plot so I had to go out and plant that shrub before the term ‘burial plot’ stuck. She’s so cute.
I have really been able to enjoy them right from my office window but now it’s October and they are looking a little raggedy, although they are still producing flowers.
This morning I went out to look at them and noticed a handful of seed pods lying on the soil so I got a container and started collecting them for next year.
I even brought in some of the green pods that were still on the plant but I only collect those that fell off as soon as I touched them. The others will be read in a few more days I think. I have three dozen at the moment. They are on a paper towel drying before I seal them up and put them away for next year.
I always like to watch video showing me how to do things so I looked around Youtube for a bit and located this short video that shows a guy collecting Nasturtium seeds like I just did. I hope you will like it.
