Planting & Care
Sow Cherry Twist Snapdragon seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Lightly press seeds 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 gradually acclimate them to outdoor conditions before planting in the garden after the danger of frost has passed.
In the garden, space plants 12-18 inches apart in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, 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 may benefit from staking in windy areas.
