Planting & Care

Sow snapdragon seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; 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 grow on in cooler conditions.

After the danger of frost has passed, harden off the seedlings and transplant them outdoors, spacing 12-18 inches apart. Choose a location with full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during dry spells. Mulch around plants to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. Tall varieties may benefit from staking in windy areas.
