My Own Nasturtiums

Nasturtiums (aka Tropaeolum) are one of my (many) favorite flowers. Between their gorgeously round leaves and endlessly overlapping stems are flowers of the shape that sends me back to the drawing board almost as often as irises do. And of course, their fiery colors are amazing! I searched this blog and realized that I had not posted my nasturtium sketches by themselves even once. But now I have my own plants to refer to! It took forever to grow them from seeds, and out of many baby plants, only a few survived. But they are of three different colors and are still blooming! (Hopefully, it will self-seed and I will have these beauties to remind me to go back and draw them until I like the result!).
