Transplant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, spacing them 12-18 inches apart. Provide consistent moisture and fertilize monthly for best growth.
For cut flowers, harvest stems when the lower flowers are open. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering. Snapdragons prefer cooler weather and may decline in extreme heat; provide afternoon shade in hot climates.
