Violas are an easy cool season flower that you can grow by simply sprinkling seeds around the garden. In mild winter climates they’ll provide blooms through the cool season and fit nicely into beds, borders, and containers.

The flowers are edible, which makes them a fun addition to salads and desserts, and pollinators are naturally attracted to them. Violas are a simple way to add color, support pollinators, and make use of small spaces in the garden.

Nasturtiums are one of the most useful and charming cool season flowers to add to a home garden. The big seeds are perfect for gardening with kids, and once plants are established they often drop seeds and return each year.

Both the leaves and flowers are edible, adding a peppery flavor to salads and garnishes. Nasturtiums can also act as a trap crop in vegetable beds and attract plenty of pollinators. They grow well in raised beds, containers, and along the edges of paths or borders.

If you want a flower that is beautiful, edible, and beneficial for the garden, nasturtiums are an easy choice.
