Planting & Care

Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; do not cover as light aids germination. Keep moist and maintain a temperature of 65-75°F. Germination typically occurs in 10-21 days. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant outdoors after hardening off, spacing 12-18 inches apart. For fall blooms in mild climates, sow directly in late summer.

Water regularly to keep soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. Snapdragons may benefit from staking in windy areas. Fertilize lightly every 4-6 weeks with a balanced fertilizer.
