It is intereting how much small differences can vary results. I
planted the same nasturtiums from the same seed packet as last year in
the same spot. They weren't as crowded as last year and they grew like
wildfire.

I planted nasturtiums from seed in 1993 on My Hill. They reseed
and come back every year.


I certainly wouldn't mind volunteers, they are a great trap crop for
aphids. I'm still developing growing beds. I reworked the ground a bit
this year early in the season, so I haven't really given stuff a
chance to reseed easily(except weeds). Next year I may have more
volunteers. Last years Violas popped up everywhere (especially between
bricks) and some dill came up.
