    Nasturtiums  :)
    They do best in poor soil ... the usual cause of too much leaf hiding the flowers is that the soil is too rich. 

    You could always pick some of the leaves and use them in a salad ... or I love them in a sandwich with salami  :)

    Sorry, I added a bit to my earlier post ... cut them off and eat them  :)  Lovely peppery taste a bit like rocket or oriental mustard leaves.
