Started to grow laboriously, then completely withered after reaching 10-15 cm (4-6in) in height. No more tuber in the pot. I've dressed my pergola differently as a result. I will try again next spring in open ground and in a different location, to see if it suits better.

Pretty plant.

In summary, several setbacks, including with the golden birch, poppies, and polonium.... Success with all the shrubs and hydrangeas.

non-viable plant
Small and in poor condition of freshness upon reception. Never grew.

Started growing really late (end of August) and reached stems of 20 cm (8in)! No flowers! Dug up in mid-October: a tuber barely 1 cm (0in) in size (even a bit less!)... The original tuber had decomposed (which is normal if it's like potatoes). Anyway, I kept this little tuber, but not enough to make a meal out of, so I'll try to replant it next year. I had set up stakes, thinking I could use this nasturtium to provide shade for vegetables scorched by the sun... The stakes ended up being used to support other vegetables that had grown too much. A bit disappointed...

Hello, The bulbs have grown well but no flowers. What could be the causes? Thanks, Marthe

Faulty product
The tuber was already half dead when I received it. Despite my care, it never sprouted.
