Is this nasturtium safe for dogs and cats?
Yes. The ASPCA classifies Tropaeolum majus, the species of Orange Troïka, as non-toxic to dogs, cats, and horses. Toxicity is therefore marked FALSE and pet friendly is marked TRUE. Do not confuse garden nasturtium with watercress, sometimes called nasturtium in English, which is a different plant. Even a non-toxic plant may cause digestive discomfort when an animal eats a large amount. Fertilizers, pesticides, and growing media also carry their own risks. Keep seed packets and recently treated plants out of reach. If an animal consumes a substantial amount or develops unusual symptoms, contact a veterinarian and provide the name Tropaeolum majus along with the products applied. Pet-friendly status describes the plant itself, not every substance present during cultivation.
Are Orange Troïka flowers edible?
Yes. W.H. Perron and Norseco classify Orange Troïka as a nasturtium with edible flowers. Its tangerine-orange flowers can decorate salads and provide a lively, peppery flavour. Harvest only healthy, clean flowers and rinse them gently just before use. Eat only plants grown with products labelled for food crops. A plant purchased or treated strictly as an ornamental may have received products that are unsuitable for food. Try a small amount first if you are unfamiliar with the flavour. The edible field is therefore marked TRUE, but this botanical value does not replace checking the fertilizers and treatments actually applied during cultivation and does not guarantee that every decorative flower is suitable for eating.
