Medicinal plants are essential in a garden and have many advantages for both us and our vegetables. In addition, they are very easy to grow and very resistant to both diseases and pests.

Nasturtiums are undoubtedly one of the most used plants in organic gardening for their many virtues. As for their role as medicinal plants, we can say that they are satiating and diuretic. They are used above all in cooking to season dishes since their flowers have a slightly spicy radish flavour.
It is a plant that loves fertile and slightly humid soils, so it is ideal to place it among our crops of all kinds, but especially tomato plants, beans or peppers.
Its function in the garden is to attract beneficial insects such as ladybirds that can control pests such as aphids or whiteflies. They also attract hoverflies and pollinators if we do not remove all of its flowers.
