Sweet Duet Appleblossom
Snapdragon Seeds
Sweet Duet Appleblossom snapdragons have a double helping of ruffled pink and white petals in each large, sweetly-scented, azalea-type bloom. Bushy, 18–22 in. hybrid plants branch from the base, creating a sturdy, 10-14 in. wide framework for many strong flower stems to emerge. The results: more long-lasting color in the garden, and many bright, fragrant spires to fill your vases. Blooming typically lasts from mid spring through mid summer. Fall plantings in mild-winter areas bloom throughout winter and spring. Sweet Duet Appleblossom snapdragons grow beautifully in containers, and fill the mid-range vertical space between dwarf and tall snapdragons in garden beds and borders.
Growing Sweet Duet Appleblossom Snapdragon Seeds
Plant Snapdragon Seeds: Sow snapdragon seeds in cell packs or flats, press into soil but do not cover. Need light to germinate. Kept at 55°F., germination is in 10-21 days. Transplant dwarf snapdragon seedlings 6-8 in. apart, tall snapdragons 12-18 in. apart. Direct sowing snapdragon seed is not recommended.
Grow Snapdragons: Full sun, will tolerate part sun especially in warm climates. Plants like rich, moist, well-drained soils. Avoid overhead watering. When cut back after flowering, snapdragons will quickly bloom again. Flowers excellent for cutting, sometimes sweetly scented, available in traditional 'snapping' flowers or open mouth 'butterfly' or 'azalea' flowers.
Hummingbirds love snapdragons, and the butterfly-types (Madame Butterfly and Twinny) are the easiest flowers on which to feed. Snapdragons are cold tolerant to about 18°F., are cool weather plants often grown with, and like pansies. Bloom cycle is complete when temperatures consistently top 80°F. Snapdragon plants are deer and rabbit resistant.
