Planting & Care

Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; do not cover as they need light to germinate. Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant them into individual pots or directly into the garden after the danger of frost has passed. Space plants 12-18 inches apart in a sunny location with well-drained soil.

Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during dry spells. Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize every 4-6 weeks with a balanced fertilizer. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. Snapdragons are relatively pest-free but watch for aphids and rust. With proper care, they will reward you with abundant blooms for cutting and garden enjoyment.
