🌸 How to Grow Snapdragon

Colorful, upright annuals with dragon-shaped blooms — perfect for borders, bouquets, and pollinator gardens.

🌱 Sowing & Germination

• Start Indoors: Begin 8–10 weeks before the last frost date
• Surface sow: Do not cover seeds — they need light to germinate
• Germination time: 7–14 days at 65–70°F
• Transplanting: Harden off seedlings and plant outdoors after frost, spacing 6–12 inches apart
• Direct Sowing: Possible in cool climates, but indoor start is preferred for early blooms

☀️ Light & Growing

• Thrives in full sun (6+ hours) but tolerates light afternoon shade
• Performs best in cool weather; ideal for spring and fall displays
• Grows 12–36 inches tall, depending on variety
• Provide support for taller types to prevent flopping

💧 Watering & Soil

• Water regularly to keep soil evenly moist, especially during dry spells
• Prefers rich, well-drained soil with good organic matter
• Mulch around base to retain moisture and suppress weeds
• Avoid overhead watering to reduce disease risk

🌼 Blooming & Maintenance

• Blooms in spring to early summer; may rebloom in fall
• Deadhead regularly to promote extended flowering
• Cut stems frequently for bouquets to encourage new blooms
• Pinch young seedlings to promote bushier growth
