Las flores de nasturtium canario son pequeñas y miden de 2 a 4 centímetros de diámetro.
Tienen dos pétalos superiores grandes y tres pétalos inferiores pequeños, con bordes ondulados que les dan un aspecto plumoso y aterciopelado.
Las flores de nasturtium canario son una excelente fuente de vitamina C, hierro y beta-caroteno.
También contienen manganeso, que es esencial para la formación de tejidos conectivos.
Las flores de nasturtium canario se pueden utilizar en una variedad de preparaciones culinarias, desde ensaladas y platos de verduras hasta carnes y mariscos.
Su sabor picante y fresco es ideal para realzar el sabor de los platos sin agobiarlos.
Se pueden usar frescas o secas, y combinarse con hierbas como el taragon, el cebollino y el perejil.
Las flores de nasturtium canario también se pueden combinar con carnes como ternera, cerdo, jamón y aves de corral, así como con mariscos como cangrejo, salmón y gambas.
Además, se pueden combinar con frutos secos como piñones, almendras y nueces.
Las flores de nasturtium canario son una excelente adición a cualquier jardín, ya que son fáciles de cultivar y mantienen una gran cantidad de beneficios para la salud.

Yellow flowers are often treated a little unfairly in the garden.
Just look at a stand of golden dahlias catching the evening sun, or a drift of lemon cosmos buzzing with pollinators, and I think anyone would be hard-pressed to dislike the color.
Over the years, I’ve changed my mind on yellow, and these days I find myself reaching for it more and more.
The canary creeper, or Tropaeolum peregrinum, is the ultimate example of this.
With flamboyant and frilly blooms, I know that this vibrant vine will inject joy wherever it is planted.
Even the most staunch anti-yellow gardener would have to admit, this climber is impressive.
Not only does it look good, but small but mighty bees, butterflies and hummingbirds can’t seem to resist the sweet nectar, too.
So, if you are looking for fast-growing climbing plants to add to your plot this year, learning how to grow the Canary creeper is a good idea.
Not only does Tropaeolum peregrinum have yellow flowers the same shade as a canary’s feathers, but the blooms themselves have a frilled, wing-like quality.

Sow outdoors, April-June, where they are to flower, 1.5cm (½") deep, directly into finely-prepared, well-drained soil, which has already been watered.
Sow two seeds together every 20cm (8").
Seedlings appear in 14-35 days.
Remove the weaker plant, which can be transplanted elsewhere if desired.
Water well until young plants are established.
Or sow indoors, February-May, for earlier flowers, 1.5cm (½") deep, individually in small pots of compost.
Water well and place in a cold frame or greenhouse.
Keep the compost moist.
Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out, May-June, 45cm (18") apart, when frosts are over.
