Suggest a correction or write a new one!
Tropaeolum incisum is a species of nasturtium that is native to the dry eastern side of the southern Andes mountains. It has flaring petals in shades of yellow and peach, with creeping or climbing stems and deeply divided blue-grey leaves. The plant is without hairs and produces bisexual and zygomorphic flowers. It is closely related to Tropaeolum polyphyllum and Tropaeolum leptophyllum, and Tropaeolum myriophyllum may have originated from a cross between T. leptophyllum and T. incisum. T. incisum is found in the Argentinean lake district and neighboring Chile, growing in arid, sandy fields and low scree. It is sometimes grown as an ornamental plant and can be cultivated in well-draining soil and full sunlight.
