Antirrhinum majus 'Rocket Mix'

Snapdragon - Rocket Mix

The best tall snapdragon, the 30-36" inch plants produced densely packed spikes of fragrant snapdragons in a range of color; shades of bronze, lemon, orchid, pink, red, rose, white and yellow. They are among the very best cut flowers. They are also known as a cool-season annual does very well in cool temperatures. When planting, pinch back young plants to promote bushier growth. Great for use in containers and as cut flowers. Snapdragons can be planted 2 - 3 weeks before the frost free date. Remove dead flowers to encourage new growth...

If you have never "snapped" a Snapdragon, here is how you do it: You'll notice that the blooms form two separate cupped clusters that meet in the middle, like jaws. Gently squeeze the sides of the jaws, and the two clusters will separate, just like a mouth opening. The space is just the right size for a child's finger to poke in the dragon's mouth. Release the bloom and the jaws "snap" closed!
