Growing Tips for Your Snapdragon Madame Butterfly Bronze White Seeds:

Transplant (recommended): Surface-sow into 128-cell flats or preferred seedling container 8-10 weeks before planting out. Light is required for germination; cover just enough to hold seeds in place (a fine layer of vermiculite can help maintain moisture and prevent algae).

Bottom water or mist lightly. Transplant to cell packs or larger containers when the first true leaves appear (3-4 weeks after sowing). Pinch young plants back by half their height when they have 4-6 leaves or are 3-4 inches tall for bushier plants with more side branches (pinching will delay bloom).

Space plants 4-12 inches apart. Direct seeding is not recommended.

Germination Tips: Needs light to germinate. do not cover with soil or other planting medium, 68-75 degrees Fahrenheit.

Light Preference: Sun to part shade.

Soil Requirements: Rich, well-drained, moist soil with a neutral pH.

Harvest: Cut when florets on the lower 1/3 to 1/2 of the spike are open.
