What Makes Survival Garden Seeds Different - non-GMO heirloom seeds

Brighten your garden and your table with Tip Top Mix Nasturtium Seeds from Survival Garden Seeds. This dwarf nasturtium variety features a cheerful mix of yellow, red, and orange blooms that bring vivid color to your garden after spring flowers fade. Both the leaves and flowers are edible, adding a fresh, peppery flavor to salads, garnishes, and culinary creations.

Compact and mounding, Tip Top Mix Nasturtium thrives in containers, raised beds, and borders. It’s also a valuable companion plant, especially beneficial near watermelons and other fruiting crops, helping to deter pests while enhancing garden diversity.

Colorful, Edible & Easy to Grow:

  • Produces bright yellow, orange, and red blossoms
  • Edible flowers and leaves with a light peppery flavor
  • Compact mounding habit perfect for containers and borders
  • Great companion plant for watermelons, squash, and cucumbers

Why Gardeners Love Tip Top Mix Nasturtium:

  • Dual-purpose plant—ornamental and edible
  • Thrives in poor soils and attracts pollinators
  • Provides natural pest deterrence for companion crops
  • Easy to grow from seed, even for beginners

How to Grow:
Sow nasturtium seeds directly outdoors after the last frost in full sun to partial shade. Plant seeds about ½ inch deep in well-draining soil. Water regularly, but avoid overfertilizing, as this can reduce flower production. Blooms appear throughout the summer, adding lasting beauty and utility to your garden.

Harvest & Use:
Harvest young leaves and fully opened flowers for the best flavor. Use fresh in salads, sandwiches, or as decorative garnishes. Nasturtium buds can also be pickled as a caper substitute for an extra gourmet touch.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are heirloom seeds?

Heirloom seeds are the types of seeds your grandparents grew. These varieties have been passed down from generation to generation. They’re old reliable open-pollinated varieties that aren’t typically grown commercially. Instead, they have a rich history that predates modern breeding techniques.

You can learn more about open-pollinated, heirloom, and non-GMO seeds in our Survival Garden Training blog.

How do I know my seeds are fresh?

Every seed packet includes a "packed for" date, and we germination test each seed lot before packaging to ensure you receive viable, high-quality seeds that are ready to grow.

Are your seeds treated?

No, we do not pre-treat our farmer seeds. All of our garden seeds for sale are untreated, open-pollinated, non-GMO, and heirloom varieties. They are kept in temperature-controlled cooler storage until they are packed and shipped to keep them pest and disease-free.

In what zones can I grow your seeds?

The seeds in our collections are specifically chosen from varieties that can be successfully grown from Zone 3 to Zone 10 USDA Hardiness Zones. However, individual varieties have specific needs to thrive in different environments. Each seed pack has optimal temperatures for germination and instructions on seed starting. Consult local frost dates to plan your garden and get the most out of your seeds.

What is the shelf life of these gardening seeds?

Most seeds remain viable for 3 to 5 years or longer when stored properly. Check your seed packet for specific varieties. For best results, keep your seeds in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Store them in an airtight container in a consistent temperature environment—a refrigerator or cool basement works well. Proper storage helps maintain germination rates and extends seed life well beyond the packed date.

Where are Survival Garden Seeds sourced?

The majority of our seeds are sourced in the United States, with a few exceptions when the seed is difficult to source domestically. Whenever we do have to source outside of the US, we ensure our seeds are safe to grow, non-GMO varieties that meet our standards for germination and reliability.
