Life perspectives from a wandering mind

Runaway Nasturtium


When left to its own devices, a nasturtium, truly a spreading vine, will head for the strangest places. Took this shot yesterday of one on its way to the end of our deck, past some weeds and a hose, where it will crawl up and over a brick wall on its way to freedom. Maybe this is a sign that gophers have given up.

    I have gazillions of Nasturtiums in my garden but I didn’t plant them. They came up and spread like a weed. Seeds must have been in the compost. Unfortunately they have very big leaves and small flowers

    For the first time in ten years nasturtiums in our yard don’t have large leaves. I attribute the decreased leaf size to an increase in water. But this is only a hunch.
