Potomac Snapdragon Seeds - Johnny's Custom Mix, 1000 Flower Seeds for Planting
Potomac Snapdragon seeds in Johnny's Custom Mix bring a colorful blend of tall, stately snapdragons to flower beds, borders, and cutting gardens. Snapdragons (Antirrhinum majus) are prized for their upright spikes of hooded blooms that open from the bottom upward, delivering weeks of color in mixed shades. The Potomac series is known for strong stems and uniform, vigorous growth, making this mix a dependable choice for both garden display and fresh-cut arrangements.
These cool-season annuals perform best in full sun with rich, well-drained soil and moderate moisture. Their tall habit works well toward the back of borders or in dedicated cutting rows, and the colorful spikes attract pollinators while providing long-lasting stems for bouquets.

Planting & Care
Sow snapdragon seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last frost, pressing them lightly into the surface of a moist seed-starting mix since they need light to germinate. Keep the medium consistently moist and around 65 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Once seedlings have several sets of true leaves and danger of frost has passed, harden them off gradually and transplant into the garden.
Provide full sun and rich, well-drained soil, watering regularly to keep plants from drying out. Pinch young plants to encourage branching, and remove spent flower spikes to promote continued blooming. Tall stems may benefit from light staking in windy sites.
