Title: Nasturtium 'Black Velvet'

I'm trying this for the first time this year. It's in a pot and gets a fair amount of sun (but not all day). I have to say I'm rather disappointed as I expected it to be much darker. Has anyone else had better luck? G x

Hi Georgie - I'll let you know. Mine are all leaves and no flowers at all yet!

Yes mine was more of a deep and darker colour but has finished flowering. The last flower is a deeper red than yours but the previous ones were very dark purple like on the packet.
