Chrisje’s sowing tip: Be careful, these seeds are tiny, like dust. Handle with great care when sowing. Do not cover snapdragon seeds; they need light to germinate. Want long stems from this snapdragon? Sow them in an unheated greenhouse or cold frame in autumn and transplant in spring. Or sow from February for blooms a little later in the season. Snapdragons germinate best at 21°C–24°C within 7 to 14 days. Pinch the seedlings (top them) for extra branching!
Half-hardy / hardy down to -5 degrees frost.
