Snapdragon Magic Carpet Mixed - seed
Antirrhinum majus
DESCRIPTION: Dwarf growing variety with compact flower spikes in bold fiery shades, perfect for adding heat to autumn and winter gardens. Beautiful as a cut flower too.
PLANTING: Spring and autumn avoiding extreme cold and heat, check the seed pack for detailed info on planting in your area. Sow seeds into seed raising mix or direct into their final position, scattered or in formal rows, cover with a light layer of soil and keep moist. Thin seedlings if they become crowded & replant elsewhere in the garden. When plants reach approx 5cm, nip the tips out to encourage more branches. Remove spent flowers to keep them flowering longer. Plant in free draining soil in a full sun location for best flowering. Preparing garden beds with well composted manure will give the best results.
CARE: Water seedlings regularly until established and continue to provide water especially during dry spells. Mulch plants to keep the roots cool in summer. For an extra long flowering season, remove spent blooms often and feed with liquid fertiliser
