Antirrhinum majus, Scrophulariaceae

snapdragon

Wolfsbane 'Royal Bride' is an extraordinary cut flower, the perfect plant expression of an animal snout. This snapdragon exudes a certain opulence, very chic, white with a cream center, even diffusing a bewitching perfume, which is quite rare among Scrophulariaceae... and the flowering lasts and lasts! 50-90 cm high. Annual. For a sunny position in well-drained soil. Blooms 12-14 weeks after sowing. The plant grows up to 45 cm wide.

In stock

Chill seeds in the fridge 2 days before sowing. Then press the seeds onto the surface of the potting soil, and store at between 15°C and 21°C until germination, which takes between 5 and 15 days. Water from below to prevent fungal damage. Once your seedlings have hardened off, transplant them at 24-30 cm intervals, pinching back the main stem to encourage bushy growth. You can cut the plant back to 15 cm after the first crop of flower stems to stimulate further flowering.
