1000 Snapdragon Rocket Gold Seeds - Antirrhinum majus Golden-Yellow Flowers

Snapdragon Rocket Gold (Antirrhinum majus) is a classic garden annual prized for its tall, upright spikes of bright golden-yellow blooms. The Rocket series is known for vigorous, uniform plants that produce densely packed flower spikes, making this variety a standout in beds, borders, and cutting gardens. The warm golden-yellow color brings a cheerful, sunny accent to mixed plantings and pairs well with purples, blues, and whites.

These snapdragons are as useful in the vase as they are in the landscape. Long, sturdy stems hold up well when cut, and the flowers add height and texture to fresh arrangements. In the garden, the blooms attract pollinators and provide weeks of color through the cooler parts of the season.

Planting & Care

Start snapdragon seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last expected frost. Sow seeds on the surface of a moist seed-starting mix and press them gently in, as light aids germination. Keep the medium consistently moist but not soggy and maintain a moderate temperature. Once seedlings have several sets of true leaves and danger of frost has passed, harden them off gradually before transplanting outdoors.

Snapdragons perform best in a sunny location with rich, well-drained soil. Water regularly during dry spells, and pinch young plants if you want bushier growth. Deadheading spent blooms encourages continued flowering. Tall varieties like Rocket Gold may benefit from light staking in windy, exposed sites.
