We all know them. The wonderful colourful flowers that grow easily from seed and and as soon as the flower stalks appear they get covered with little black flies. That can be annoying but with some soapy water they soon disappear. And then they begin to flower. I must admit I am a nasturtium lover.
Ah! One of my all time favorites, even if they do not bloom white. They were the first seed I ever grew when I was a little kid. My great grandfather gave me the seed. They are very popular among those of us of Italian descent. Brent knows them as ‘dago pansies’.
I am Ahmed Abdi, a Wordpress blogger and storyteller who searches for stories that inspire people. I love writing because it’s a reflection of how I perceive the world around me. Lost in a world of endless chaos in my childhood, Unforgettable moments of tragedy and triumphs taught me the art of storytelling where I found myself through letter writing and then turned into stories but then sadly had lost everything I wrote for years. In 2018, I decided to create a Wordpress blog site that would allow me to store and retrieve every piece. Stories from my community, city and people are what make my writing so interesting and inspiring! I’m a tea lover so a cup of tea sometimes makes my blog.

They taste sort of like radishes. You can eat the flowers and the leaves.
