Nasturtium is a plant native to South America that was introduced to Europe in the 16th–17th centuries and quickly became popular due to its bright orange, yellow, or red flowers.
In manor gardens, nasturtiums were grown in decorative beds and near supports, where they could stretch freely.
They are popular in rural homes because of their unpretentiousness and long flowering. In addition, the leaves and flowers are sometimes used for food.
Used in townscapes, balcony boxes and city flower beds as bright summer flowers.
Today, nasturtiums remain popular ornamental and edible plants.
