Watercress Nasturtium. Far easier to grow than many think, Watercress with its dark green peppery flavour. Rich in vitamins and minerals including vitamin C and iron can be grown in any garden. It does need lots of moisture to grow well and, more importantly, prevent flowering too prematurely. But it can very successfully grown in moist windowsill troughs indoors and larger pots outside. Cropping from summer to almost Christmas if protected. It does not require running water.
