Planting & Care
Sow Chantilly snapdragon seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; do not cover completely, as light aids germination. Maintain a temperature of 65-70°F (18-21°C) and keep the soil 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.
In the garden, space plants 12-18 inches apart in well-drained soil. Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during dry spells. Mulch to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Tall varieties may benefit from staking in windy areas. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. Snapdragons are cool-season plants and may decline in the heat of summer; in mild climates, they can be planted in fall for winter and spring bloom.
