These vibrant flowers rise above glossy green foliage, creating a dramatic vertical accent in garden beds, borders, and cutting gardens. The densely packed florets open from the bottom upward, providing weeks of color from early summer through fall. Snapdragons are a favorite among gardeners for their old-fashioned charm and their excellent performance as cut flowers, lasting well in arrangements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLiberty Scarlet is a reliable variety that thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil. The plants typically reach 24 to 36 inches in height, making them ideal for the back of the border or as a focal point in container plantings. The bright red blooms are highly attractive to pollinators, including bees and hummingbirds, adding ecological value to the landscape. Whether grown for fresh bouquets or to brighten the garden, these snapdragons deliver consistent color and form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePlant Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTall spikes of vivid scarlet-red flowers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcellent for cut flower arrangements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlooms from early summer to fall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttracts pollinators such as bees and hummingbirds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpright growth habit reaches 24-36 inches tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGrowing Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Antirrhinum majus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Annual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSunlight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun to partial shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Well-drained, fertile soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate; keep soil evenly moist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upright\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA Hardiness Zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3-10 (grown as annual)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom Season:\u003c\/strong\u003e Summer to fall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature Height:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24-36 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGermination Requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Surface sow; light needed for germination\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpacing:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12-18 inches apart\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePlanting \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStart snapdragon seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; do not cover, as light aids germination. Maintain a temperature of 65-70°F and keep the medium consistently 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 a cool, bright location. Harden off before planting outdoors after the danger of frost has passed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the garden, choose a site with full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. Water regularly to keep plants hydrated, especially during dry spells. Apply a balanced fertilizer every 4-6 weeks to encourage vigorous growth and abundant blooms. Deadhead spent flowers to prolong the blooming season. Tall varieties like Liberty Scarlet may benefit from staking in windy areas. Monitor for common pests such as aphids and treat as needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1000 Antirrhinum majus Liberty Scarlet Snapdragon Seeds\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67824646881590,"sku":"FOLIA2-882","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.6754935101_tqg1.jpg?v=1793003891","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/1000-snapdragon-seeds-liberty-scarlet-antirrhinum-majus-red-blooms-for-garden-cut-flowers","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
