Snapdragon 'Magic Carpet' Flower Seeds
300 seeds in each pack
Snapdragon 'Magic Carpet' is a charming dwarf variety of snapdragon, perfect for adding a burst of continuous colour to the front of borders, rockeries, containers, and window boxes. These delightful annuals produce a profusion of tightly packed, brightly coloured flowers in a fantastic mix of shades, including reds, pinks, yellows, and whites. Their compact habit and long flowering season make them an ideal choice for creating vibrant, low-growing displays that are sure to attract pollinators and brighten any garden space.
To prepare Snapdragon 'Magic Carpet' seeds for planting, no specific pre-treatment like scarification or cold stratification is typically required. Snapdragon seeds generally germinate readily without these steps. However, it's beneficial to ensure the seeds are fresh for optimal germination rates.
Sow the very fine seeds on the surface of a well-draining, fine-textured seed-raising mix. Do not cover the seeds with soil, as they require light to germinate. Gently press them onto the surface to ensure good contact with the mix. Keep the soil consistently moist by misting, and consider covering the tray with a clear lid or plastic wrap to maintain high humidity, which is crucial for germination. Place the tray in a warm location with bright, indirect light. Germination can be variable, typically occurring within 7-21 days. Once seedlings are large enough to handle and have developed a few true leaves, carefully transplant them into individual pots. Gradually acclimatise them to outdoor conditions before planting them in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Regular deadheading will encourage more blooms throughout their long flowering season.
