Planting & Care

Sow Calima Snapdragon seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; do not cover, as light aids germination. Keep soil moist and maintain a temperature of 65-70°F (18-21°C). Germination typically occurs in 10-21 days. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant into individual pots and grow on in cooler conditions before hardening off.

After the last frost, plant outdoors in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly to keep plants hydrated, especially during dry spells. Pinch back young plants to encourage bushier growth, and deadhead spent flowers to prolong blooming. Snapdragons benefit from a layer of mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
