Compact selections of snapdragon are easy to manage and add a handsome vertical statement to summer gardens as edging and in containers. An excellent cut flower that blooms all summer where nights cool down, late spring and fall in hotter areas. Pinch when setting out to promote bushy growth and a mass of blooms. A native pollinator favorite, for bumblebees heavy enough to shoulder open the hinged flower emerge rich in nectar and covered with pollen, carrying the gold dusting to the next blossom. Shear after the first flush of bloom and fertilize for renewed fall flowering.
