nasturtium

I got two nasturtium plants at our local nursery for 89 cents each.  They seemed thirsty and scraggly and like they really needed to be perked up. So I potted them on my balcony and have been trying my best to get them to flourish a little bit.  I was so glad that a bloom came!  And new little leaves are emerging.  Hopefully next summer I'll plant my own from seeds and have a whole bunch of blooms I can clip for salads.  They're edible and so pretty mixed in with the greens.  But so long as I only have one bloom, I'd rather just feast my eyes.
