The seeds to start these plants came from Select Seed
" Cherrelle' has mounds of sea green foliage supporting a bevy of blooms in rosy red fading to rose, each double flower showcasing sunny yellow throats. Our new favorite nasturtium has excellent flower power and is best in early summer and early fall when the summer heat wanes "
At Meeting House Farm we train this nasturtium to grow up our chicken coop. We also plant along fence rows to pick for autumn salads.
Our nasturtium plants are available in 4 inch pots or 6 packs. Available for pick up only.
Blooms in 10 weeks.

Organic / Biodynamic Information
All live seedlings, bare roots and gallon-sized plants are certified organic by MOFGA and grown biodynamically from seed at Meeting House Herb Farm in Scarborough, Maine.
A Note about Plant Sizes
This picture shows the plant full grown.
If you are picking up Seedlings, know that they are quite small - just started and will need some care to establish. We've raised them from seed, and made sure they are adjusted to 24/7 outdoor weather, so it will be the perfect time and size to take home and plant in your own garden to arrange in harmony with your other plants.
If you order bare root, they will be just breaking dormancy and will need to be planted as soon as possible. These will be 1 year plants. Give them a year to fully establish in their new home.
If you are picking up Gallon sized pots, they are 1-3 year old plants dug from our gardens at Meeting House Farm.
