Planting & Care

Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; do not cover as they need light to germinate. Maintain a temperature of 65-70°F (18-21°C) and keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Germination typically occurs in 10-21 days. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant them into individual pots and gradually acclimate them to outdoor conditions before planting in the garden after the danger of frost has passed.

For direct sowing, scatter seeds on prepared soil in early spring or fall. Thin seedlings to the recommended spacing. Water regularly, especially during dry spells, and apply a balanced fertilizer every few weeks to promote healthy growth and abundant blooms. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. Snapdragons may require staking in windy areas.
