Planting & Care

Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; do not cover completely as light aids germination. Keep soil moist and at 65-70°F (18-21°C). Germination typically occurs in 10-21 days. Transplant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, spacing 12-18 inches apart. Pinch young plants to encourage bushier growth.

Water regularly to keep soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Deadhead spent flowers to prolong blooming. Snapdragons prefer cooler weather and may decline in extreme heat; provide afternoon shade in hot climates.
