For late winter/spring plantings Snapdragons are a cheery addition to any flower patch.

Loved by gardeners of all ages for their range of colours, fun shape – and who can look passed the cheeky little squeeze to make them look like a dragon snapping away!

Snapdragons are relatively easy to grow and look great in garden beds, pots and hanging baskets.

**Sunlight:** Full to partial sun

**Watering:** Regular watering is required,

**Soil:** Well compost, well-drained soil is a must! Add plenty of organic matter like [ActivGrow Soil Improver](https://rockypoint.com.au/products/activgrow/)prior to planting. In pots, a quality potting mix like [Grow More Premium Potting Mix](https://rockypoint.com.au/products/grow-more/) is ideal.

**Feeding:** Regular liquid fertilizing with a seaweed concentrate every two weeks during the growing season will have your snappies happy all season long!
