Tropaeolum majus ‘Peach Melba’ (Nasturtium) is a compact, bushy annual or short-lived perennial forming a small mound of rounded, dark blue-green leaves. Blooming from winter through spring in mild winter areas and from summer to fall in colder climates, it boasts a profusion of long-stalked, semi-double creamy-yellow flowers adorned with a red-orange throat. The blossoms make a fantastic contrast to the dark foliage. This petite Nasturtium is ideal for containers and small space gardens.
