- I've been growing snapdragons for over two decades and thought I had a handle on it---but NOT after this discussion with Dave Dowling!
In this episode, we are talking about extending the harvest season, how to do that but variety selection, harvesting, conditioning, and more!
This is but a small sampling of what it is like to learn from Dave. I am so pleased to have Dave as one of our online course instructors.
Learn more about his course and get on the waitlist for his June enrollment for Bulbs, Perennials, Woodies, and More!

Amazing! Dave is such a wealth of knowledge, Thank you Lisa for asking all the right questions. I took notes. Paused and then listened again just to make sure I wrote it down correctly.
I listened to this and was SO excited by all your good questions and Dave’s clear and plentiful instruction that I couldn’t sleep!! I had to get up and grab my pencil and paper.
Together, you hit all my questions and wonderings!
Thank you, thank you! Love your podcasts and all you do!
🌻 Reminder to self: play on repeat...wow, thank you!!!
I love this podcast! Snaps are my favorite, and this is so helpful! I can't wait to have snaps for my entire growing season! Thank you, Lisa, for all the teaching and information you share with us.
Taking notes the second time through! Thanks, Lisa and Dave!!

LOVE THIS collaboration! Growing for Market is where I first began market journey years ago and loved learning from Lynn... and the transition had been seamless and continued with great content! And as always, love you Lisa and Dave- the knowledge is an overload!!! lol.
Very interesting...I love listening to you Lisa. You and those on your podcast are just a wealth of information. God bless y'all
Dave’s teaching style is “fast”! Went over to the podcast and slowed you guys down to 75%. Great information! Thank you!
Dave didn't talk about the seeds needing cold stratification. I am so confused about this because when I researched starting snaps by seed, so many different sources say they need cold stratification. My seed packet from Botanical Interests says to freeze the seeds for 48 hours. Lisa, do you cold stratification your snapdragon seeds?
Wow! So much information. I need to slow the playback speed and take notes. Thank you!
Omg am blown away . Such amazing info . Thankyou both
Yes, this is excellent. Thank you!
I have been "succession listening" to this!! 🤣 Thanks Lisa and Dave!
I've just listened to this podcast 3 times while cleaning out my flower beds for the fall and have decided that snapdragons are one of the 3 flowers that I'm going to specialize in along with celosia and sweet peas as well as getting ready to put in an established area of curly willow. Thanks so much for all you information. I had fabulous results growing snaps and celosia this year with my first trial year. Thanks again for all the information and great seeds. 👍 ❤️🌿
Great, great information!! 👍
Question though... what if there is not a group number on the seed packet?? I have black prince and tall deluxe- neither have numbers on them - I looked them up and have only found "A1, A3" for black prince (can't find anything on tall deluxe) -- is this the same thing??
Muitas informações top. Vou ouvir novamente. Obrigado.
I think keeping at 34 degrees, keeping stems straight in bucket, keeping bees out of blooms, keeping chemicals in its water, keeping up with which kind blooms when, is enough for me to not deal with them……Darn!
I am going to throw a wrench in here. lol I am in Eastern Canada and I had rockets (the actual plant) grow back the following year on the west side of my house. I was shocked!
I'm so glade I found you! I listen and learn on TH-cam. I also live in Virginia zone 6b
Wow, that was so much great information. Thank you!!
THANKKKKK YOUUUUUU!!!!
Amazing lecture, thank you so much! I have been google searching Maryland snaps but can not find them online, any suggestions?
In Europe, it’s hard to find the varieties you grow and very often there is no mention of the group (for Monarch or Labella). This year I started finding Mme Butterfly and a few colours of Potomac that I loved so much when I grew them a few years ago, when it was still possible to buy seeds in the UK 😞 but I am still a bit confused : can I saw these group 3-4 snaps in the fall as they are not meant to bloom early in the season ? What would be the point of doing so ? Thanks in advance for your help !
I wish there was a hobbiest/home gardener version of instruct. I fear the book won't tell me when to put my seedlings out in my z5b. All I ever hear about is the South.
It depends on the frost dates in your growing zone.
But there are so many varieties that you cannot find the group online. How do we know when to sow? So frustrating!
great info. thanks would you mind letting me know which zinnia variety you're holding in the picture?

I planted group 2 in spring. They were good in late spring and came back growing tall again in the fall. They just sat there all summer. They did have seed pods on them later though which I guess is not good. My season ends in Sept so I can't plant the ,fours
Thank you
Hi, do you have any recommendations for where to buy the snap plugs that you are referring to?
Do you guys have a recipe for a "holding solution" or is this something you purchase?
No recipe for holding solution, we use this holding solution Ive linked below. The problem with homemade cut flower conditioning products is they aren't stable andd typically don't last but a few hours. thegardenersworkshop.com/product/cut-flower-holding-solution-t-bags/
Hi, what is TGW Pink dragon and Rocket classification ? Anybody😊
