I seeded a flower bed with snapdragons once and they filled it the entire season. The colors crossed and I ended up with rainbow blooms that same year. The plants behind those were columbine and they also mixed color and that was the flower bed that started my addiction to the garden!!

I guess you didn’t hear me yell, “half a tray, Laura!” Oh well, better too many than not enough. Now you can share the beauty! But you always do that. You are the generous gardener!

I like to take an index card, fold it in half and then open it partially to make a “v” shape. Then I pour my tiny seeds into it. Then I take a lid from a ball point pen and use it to slightly scoot the seeds off the card into the cells. It works awesome! Sometimes I use the pen lid to just slightly tap the card making vibrations that wiggle the seeds off one or two at a time. Also works great! Then I just pour the remaining seeds back into the packet.

In Greece we call snapdragons "skylakia" which means little dogs! We don't plant them in our gardens, they grow everywhere here as a weed. I love them very much and I remember as kids we opened the blooms and barked... hahaha Much love to all of you!

Loved this! You included your "mistakes" like filling the whole tray with 1 variety, losing a couple seeds while trying to give us a close up. This is why we all love your videos. You show it all. Thank you for another informative video

As kids, we had fun squeezing the sides of the blooms to make the dragon's mouth open and close 😃

I got a chuckle when the video went into fast forward. I thought "yep" she's had her coffee. I always enjoy. Thank you. xo

Always perfect timing! I’ve started quite a few seeds in trays, but boy it’s so much different here. I have found that in the south, cinnamon is a must for our seed starting. We are just so darn humid, even at this time of year, that if I don’t sprinkle cinnamon on top I will definitely have mold within days. Can’t wait to see my little plants out in the yard!! 🌻🌼🌸🌺🌷

I don't have a heating mat, but I'm gonna try to seed in my house. Will seed my first annual batch today! This will become my president's day tradition. 😊 Fingers crossed!

So so glad I discovered wintersowing over 15 years ago. I grow snapdragons using that method. They do fabulous. I’m leaving this week for Florida to spend time with the grandkids and no worries about seedlings and their constant watering and fussing.

Great video thank you 😊. I have loved traditional snapdragons since I was a child trying to make them "snap". The little black beetles are known as pollen beetles in the UK, I get them on sweet peas a lot. There's nothing to treat them, but they don't harm plants or flowers. If shaking them off doesn't get rid of enough you can leave the cut flowers in water in a darker room near to a bright open window. The beetles are attracted to light so should leave the flowers. Your cut flower shed will be perfect for this 😊💐

Your patience and eyesight are second to none! I might just attempt planting seeds again after hearing about the vermiculite top layer. Your videos are second to none as well! Thank you!

Good morning garden fam! Hope we're all enjoying our coffee.

It’s so amazing how a tiny seed like that can turn into such a large and beautiful thing.

Hi Laura I’m for a higher zone I live in the Caribbean island of Trinidad and Tobago. I love watching your videos and have been watching you for many years. And I don’t miss a single video.I know that I can’t plant most of the plants that you do but, I’ve never really cared for gardening before I found you and now I have flower bed and raised beds and doing so much research also visiting local garden centers now am addicted to planing. Thank you for helping me find a hobby I didn’t know I needed.

[wynorawishum]

Can't wait to see how they do. It is exciting to start planting and thinking about the beautiful color you will have. Have a blessed day everyone.

Good morning from Windermere, Florida zone 9b USA 🇺🇸
I'm a retired florist and love Snaps.
I'm glad to hear there are snapdragons for our heat. I'm going to take your advice. Thanks from the South 💓👍💓
