Description

Snapdragons are the epitome of cut-and-come-again and in nectarine, raspberry, strawberry and peach, yes please! Planted and then picked – as armfuls – from my 20 x 20 foot Cutting Patch last summer, these filled their corner of the garden and countless vases with irresistible colour.

This collection contains 5 seedlings, or 3 x 9cm pots each of:
  • Antirrhinum majus 'Liberty Classic Crimson’ F1
  • Antirrhinum majus 'Chantilly Deep Orange' F1
  • Antirrhinum majus 'Potomac Deep Orange' F1
  • Antirrhinum majus 'Maryland Flamingo' F1

Care Tips

Choose a spot in full sun or light shade, ideally with moist but well-drained soil. For growing in pots, use as large a container as possible. Keep picking (not to the ground but to above a pair of leaves), and these will keep flowering.
