Growing Information

Candy Tops Pink Bicolor thrives in full sun and fertile, well-drained soil. Plants typically reach 8 to 12 inches in height, forming compact mounds topped with numerous flower spikes. Their tidy habit makes them ideal for front-of-border plantings and decorative containers.

Snapdragons prefer cooler growing conditions and often provide their best displays during spring and early summer. In regions with mild summers, flowering can continue for many months, especially when spent blooms are removed regularly.
