Watercress
Nasturtium officinale
Watercress, a relative of Nasturtium, it has a similar delicious radish, or horseradish flavor. Absolutely packed with healthy nutrients, it is very good in salads and adds a gourmet touch to sandwiches. You may also eat the sprouts as you would alfalfa.
Sowing Information Watercress may be direct seeded about 1/2 inches apart, 1/4 inches deep. Thin seedlings to 4 inches apart and keep well-drained soil moist. Transplant to large pots or garden with soil that is fertile, humus-rich, well-limed, and has a pH around 7.0. Keep soil moist, or sit pots in pans of water and refresh water daily. 60 days to maturity.
