Very tolerant of hot dry conditions and as said, poor soil. Good companion plant under fruti trees. repels aphids, ants, cucmber beetles, squash bugs, white flies, borers near fruit. Can eat leaves as well, peppery taste, good with eggs

Nasturtiums prefer poor soil, so do not fertilze them, as this will promote foliage growth, but not flowering.

I learned not feed them as well but I love to throw the flowers in my salad.
