It is extremely dry here so I store in paper envelopes inside sleeved photo albums. I found it helpful to check out some seed saving books from the library.

Coming from Texas, I was not familiar with nasturtiums. Decided to plant some seeds from a local seed company, Botanical Interests (they have beautiful illustrations), around my tomatoes here in Colorado and they are now flowering. Something I read in an old gardening book, Noah's Garden, said that we need to be reminded that seeds figure out themselves when the best time to germinate is. The author got the best results from gathering, storing in a cool, dry place through winter and then sowing directly when the soil warms up. Some will take more than a year to be ready - just depends on the type of plant. I have seed packets that are five years old or more and they all came up this spring.
The extent of my horticultural adventures: I used to eat nasturtiums as a child; I've always loved spicy food.
