@chris1948 Thank you for sharing that! This is my goal, to generate my own snaps. Just like I keep favorite coleus going all year. So the seedlings I started in January have been in the ground for a couple months and are looking like they may bloom before it gets too hot. We are having a mild, cool spring. What usually kills my snaps is the heat, so in Texas you must have same problem, where do you put snapdragon plants when it gets hot? I'm thinking maybe I could pot them with water crystals and keep them in a corner of the front porch where it's shaded and I'll remember to water daily. Then in fall plant them in yard to give late fall interest. Its not that I begrudge the stores their profits on selling plants, but I like to be self sustaining and have hundreds of plants...plus I still buy more every year!
