At different times in their history, they’ve been considered a vegetable, an herb, a flower, and even a fruit. Renaissance botanists named it after watercress, (Nasturtium officinale in Latin) which tastes similar. During the Victorian era, Nasturtium flowers were eaten to prevent scurvy since they are rich in Vitamin C. Health Benefits Nasturtium Flowers contain mustard oil, which has been used as a natural antibiotic. They can be chewed to soothe a sore throat and to ward off colds and flus.
