Create an eye-catching display with these beautiful dwarf snapdragons in a wide range of colours. Snapdragons actually prefer cooler temperatures, so this is a great plant for early spring or late fall enjoyment. The flowers start blooming at the bottom of the stalk and work their way up, making for a long period of bloom. The plant may stop flowering in the excessive heat of summer. They make great cut flowers and good companions to other cool season plants, especially since they can flower in part shade. While the standard snapdragons are tall, bushy plants they are perfect for containers, window boxes, and cascading over walls.
