Tropaeolum majus ‘Honolulu’

Description

Large showy single blooms in tropical island colors. Blooms May to October, forming dense mounds of color and attracting bees and hummingbirds to its long-spurred blossoms. Bright blooms are deliciously edible, with a spicy flavor, like watercress – use them whole to garnish salads, or chop and add to cheese spreads or rice dishes.  Grows 11-12” tall.  Full sun or part shade in hotter climates.
