| Positive | lehua_mc | On Jun 30, 2009, lehua_mc from Portland, OR (Zone 8b) wrote: This is an incredibly petite little vine, I let the close ups fool me. I have put it where I expected it to be a larger mass, and am contenting myself to a fine filigree of dainty foliage speckled with exquisite yellow flowers. Use this as a part of a composition, and where you can appreciate it in close quarters. City dwellers? Condo balconies? Kitchen window box? |

I have another type of nasturtium in the same area that does well, so I don't know why the canary creepers didn't make it.. I will try again as I liked the different leaf shape and how it flowered. |
| Positive | eje | On Mar 17, 2004, eje from San Francisco, CA (Zone 10a) wrote: A nice climber with amusingly shaped flowers. Climbs by wrapping its leaf petiole (stem) around any available support. Winter sown it's nice to grow it up through a deciduous bush to provide spring interest. It seems, however that the young roots are some sort of slug delicacy. Direct seeded quite a few of them, and most ended up plopping over shortly after germination. The roots were completely gone and some very happy slugs were curled up nearby. Once they get a bit larger, the slugs seem to lose interest. |
| Positive | ppowers | On Jun 8, 2003, ppowers from Owasso, OK (Zone 7a) wrote: Planted the seed on June 1st and plants were up on June 5th, currently about 3 inches tall and growing. So far so good. Zone 7 |
| Positive | Weezingreens | On Sep 12, 2002, Weezingreens from Seward, AK (Zone 3b) wrote: Tropaeolum peregrinum grows well in our moist cool climate. I start mine indoors at least three weeks before setting them out in order to get earlier blooms in our short season. They are agressive climbers and fill in nicely. |
| Neutral | Evert | On Aug 10, 2001, Evert from Helsinki Finland (Zone 4b) wrote:This is very easy to grow annual vine. It grows well here in Finland too, so it can be grown as annual in zones 2-8. In zones 9-11 it is perennial. |
