My T. tricolor tubers have arrived well in advance of my plant to
construct a window box for them, and I am considering trying them in
"woolly pockets" instead:

These are breathable felted polyethylene bags used in vertical
gardening: Height = 15 inches, Length = 24 inches Volume = .40 cubic
feet.

Does anyone have experience with this type of product or thoughts
about it's suitability to T. tricolor?

In case you're wondering why I want to windowbox this plant, the
location will provide the best winter sun I can muster. Also, I grew
up near the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and remember its
Nasturtiums much better than its stolen Vermeer:
