1000 Candy Showers Purple Snapdragon Seeds for Cascading Blooms & Hanging Baskets

Candy Showers Purple Snapdragon is a trailing snapdragon variety prized for its cascading habit and colorful flower spikes. Unlike upright snapdragons, this selection sends out long, arching stems that spill gracefully over the edges of containers, window boxes, and hanging baskets. The purple blooms create a soft, flowing display that adds height, color, and movement to patios, porches, and garden beds.

These snapdragons are a favorite for gardeners who want continuous seasonal color with a relaxed, trailing form. The flower spikes attract pollinators and work well in mixed container plantings alongside other annuals. With 1000 seeds, this packet offers plenty of material for starting a full display or sharing with fellow gardeners.

Planting & Care

Start Candy Showers Purple Snapdragon seeds indoors several weeks before the last frost. Press seeds lightly onto the surface of a moist seed-starting mix, since they need light to germinate. Keep the medium consistently moist but not soggy, and maintain a warm, bright location. Once seedlings have developed a few sets of true leaves, transplant them into larger pots or harden them off for the garden.

For hanging baskets and containers, use a well-draining potting mix and place plants where they receive plenty of sunlight. Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, and feed occasionally during the growing season to support continuous blooming. Pinch back young plants if you want a fuller, bushier cascade. Deadheading spent blooms can encourage additional flower production.
