Description/Taste
Nasturtium leaves are small to medium in size and are round and broad in shape, averaging 5-15 centimeters in diameter. The flat, bright green leaves are waxy, pliable, have a few veins running throughout, and are connected to a central stem. In addition to the leaves, Nasturtium plants are trailing vines and are known for their bright yellow, orange, and magenta blooms. Nasturtium leaves are tender with a slightly sweet, green, tangy, and peppery taste. The richer the soil the plants are grown in, the more pungent the leaves and stems will taste.
[Wikipedia]
Nasturtium is a genus of seven plant species in the family Brassicaceae (cabbage family), best known for the edible watercresses Nasturtium microphyllum (Rorippa microphylla) and Nasturtium officinale (R. nasturtium-aquaticum). Nasturtium was previously synonymised with Rorippa, but molecular evidence supports its maintenance as a distinct genus more closely related to Cardamine than to Rorippa sensu stricto (Al-Shehbaz & Price, 1998; Al-Shehbaz, Beilstein & Kellogg, 2006). Watercress or yellow cress is a common name for plants in this genus.

Thanks Deborah, I've never eaten these leaves. Captured in my neighbors garden who told me what they were! Loved checking out your new images and I left a few L/F's in appreciation.
