Nasturtium Black Velvet
Turn heads with the moody, sophisticated blooms of Nasturtium 'Black Velvet', a striking variety featuring a profusion of velvety, ultra-dark ruby-black flowers. The dramatic, near-black blossoms are highlighted by a tiny golden-yellow throat and sit proudly above a contrasting backdrop of rounded, deep green leaves, creating a bold, gothic effect ideal for borders, containers, and edible gardens. Both the peppery leaves and the dark, elegant flowers are entirely edible, adding an exceptional, high-contrast pop of colour to summer dishes.
Thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, flourishing even in poor conditions. Plant directly after the last frost and avoid overfeeding to maximise blooms. Pair with lime-green foliage or trailing nasturtiums for a rich, eye-catching contrast in any sunny spot.
Supplied in approx. 9cm pots.
