Nasturtium (Tropaeolum Majus)


Nasturtium (Tropaeolum Majus)

NASTURTIUM (Tropaeolum majus)

Diese ganze Pflanze hat einen würzigen, pfeffrigen Geschmack. Blätter, Blüten und Stängel werden häufig frisch in Salaten verwendet, und die grünen Hülsen können gebeizt und als Ersatz für Kapern verwendet werden. Kapuzinerkresse ist auch ziemlich auffällig und nützlich in einem Blumenrand oder Steingarten.

Dies ist eine zarte jährliche mit runden, hellgrünen Blättern und auffälligen gelben, orange oder roten Blüten. Die Stiele sind langgestreckt und geben der Pflanze eine ausladende Wuchsform.

Weil Kapuzinerkresse weniger blüht und meistens Blätter in einem reichen, feuchten Boden produziert; den Samen an einem unfruchtbaren Ort pflanzen, nachdem Frostgefahr vorbei ist. Obwohl die Pflanzen in voller Sonne wachsen, ist es besser, einen halbschattigen Standort zu wählen. Tränken Sie die Samen über Nacht in Wasser, um die Keimung zu unterstützen. Die frischen Blätter und Blüten können jederzeit während der Vegetationsperiode geerntet werden.
