There is not a lot of information on the nutritional content of the Nasturtium plant, but many report that it is high in vitamin C. The entire plant is edible - stem, leaves and flower. It is an easy plant to grow, and gives your salad a mild peppery taste. And while providing an interesting addition to your salads, it will give you beautiful blooms all summer.
It is also a good plant to have around the border of your vegetable garden, since deer and rabbits just don't like Nasturtium. It does attract various varieties of bees. The bees just love these flowers.
I have also included a video on how to collect the seeds to grow these plants in following years.
