Planting & Care
For best results, start Candy Tops Snapdragon seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost. Sow seeds on the surface of a moist, well-draining seed-starting mix and press gently; do not cover completely, as light aids germination. Keep the medium consistently moist and maintain a temperature around 65–70°F. Once seedlings have several true leaves and danger of frost has passed, harden them off and transplant outdoors.
Alternatively, sow seeds directly in the garden after the last frost, barely covering them with soil. Space plants 8–12 inches apart in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly to keep soil evenly moist, especially during dry spells. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering. Snapdragons are generally low-maintenance and may benefit from a light application of balanced fertilizer during the growing season.
