Fragrant 
NASTURTIUMS 
Nasturtiums will always be popular because they are so easy to grow and their colors and fragrance 
are so refreshing. They do better on dry, sandy or gravelly soil, for if planted in rich soil they are 
apt to produce more leaves than flowers. Don’t plant the seed until the soil has warmed up well. 
Control black plant lice which often trouble them by spraying with N.N.O.R. or Black Leaf 40.
