I start nasturtiums off in pots that size, then transplant. As each plant can cover several metres, long term, tiny pots are not an option. I think I have said before, a course in garden design does not make a gardener.
Cheers Fidget: I want plants that will happily last at least six months in these pots (or a season if you prefer) so can't see nasturtiums being of any use. Such a shame when designers don't read the design specification. Such a simple mistake that causes so much confusion.
Does Viola Conte grow slowly? It seems to grow quite large.
Ladybird: I think your idea suits me perfectly. I was idling at the thought of getting some carnivorous plants that seem very slow growing to try and expand my growing skills.

Oh boo! Bet he would do a double take if you asked for sexifrage!
Nasturtium! You can eat flowers and leaves (but they are a bit 'spicy')
Hmmmm I've lost the plot now
Do they 'make' nasturtiums that small or has this post sneaked in from another one?
