The first ever trailing snapdragon from seed
The Candy Showers Rose Snapdragon Plant is a delightful addition to any garden, showcasing its beautiful blooms in vibrant colors. As the first ever trailing snapdragon from seed, it thrives in hanging baskets, mixed containers, and even as a colorful ground cover. What sets this variety apart is its ability to bloom easily even under short daylight conditions, allowing for sales in both spring and fall. Whether you plant them alone or mix them with other flowering companions like kale or pansies, the visual impact is undeniable.
A standout feature of Candy Showers Rose is its strong, flexible stems that withstand shipping and hold up beautifully in the garden. This resilience means you can enjoy a hassle-free planting experience with less worry about damage. With its rich colors and bouncing blooms, this plant not only adds brightness but also invites a charming, whimsical touch to your outdoor spaces.
Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a location that receives full sun to partial shade, ensuring good drainage. Make holes large enough for root balls and space them about 10-12 inches apart for ideal growth.
2. Watering: Water regularly, especially during hot, dry spells. Keep the soil evenly moist but avoid waterlogging, as this can cause root rot. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between watering sessions to maintain optimal moisture levels.
3. Pruning: Deadhead spent blooms regularly to encourage new growth and keep the plants tidy. In late fall or early winter, you can trim back any leggy growth to promote a fuller appearance in the next growing season.
4. Fertilizing: Fertilize with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. This will help support healthy growth and a stunning display of blooms.
