Snapdragon 'Magellan Mix'

Plant in a location that enjoys partial sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Magellan Mix is thought of as tender, so it is really important to ensure that the outside temperature is well above freezing before planting or moving outdoors. Magellan Mix requires a loamy soil with a ph of 6.1 - 6.5 - it grows best in weakly acidic soil.

Look to ensure a distance 5.85 inches (15.0 cm) between seeds when sowing - bury at a depth of at least 0.0 inches (0.0 cm) deep. Soil temperature should be kept higher than 13°C / 55°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Magellan Mix about 56 days before your last frost date.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Magellan Mix is a tender plant.

The common name derives from the flowers which, when squeezed, open their “mouths”.
