Growing Instructions

For best success, start these snapdragons indoors about 8–10 weeks before your average last frost date. Sow seeds on the surface of a moist, well-drained seed mix and press them in gently — they need light to trigger germination. Keep the medium consistently moist, and once seedlings develop true leaves, transplant into larger cells. After frost risk has passed and plants are hardened off, place them in a sunny bed or container with rich soil. These cool-weather lovers do especially well in spring and fall plantings. Light pinching of young plants can encourage a bushier habit and more side blooms but may delay first flowers slightly. Regular watering and balanced fertilizer will help sustain blooms throughout the growing season.
