Planting & Care
1. Planting: Yellow snapdragons thrive best in full sun to partial shade, requiring well-drained, nutrient-rich soil and consistent watering, especially when they are young. They prefer cooler temperatures and may halt blooming during intense heat, but they can be revived with shade and adequate watering. When planting them, position the snapdragons near the center of the pot, surrounded by smaller plants or those that trail over the edges. If you are planting them in mass or as bedding plants, space each individual plant approximately 8 inches apart.
2. Watering: This plant thrives in average to evenly moist conditions but does not tolerate standing water. When growing plants in outdoor containers and baskets, they may need more frequent watering than they would in a yard or garden.
3. Fertilizing: Fertilize your plants once a month, or as needed, particularly if they are grown in containers.
4. Pruning: This plant will require occasional maintenance and upkeep but should not need much pruning, except when necessary to remove any dieback.
