Well, I should've known better than to put snapdragons in containers again. All of them are wilting again like they did in early April. At this point, I think I've realized snaps can only grow in the ground here. Last time I tried to wait the wilt out, and I mass-murdered 60% of them. I'm not doing that again. I'm going to go ahead and toss them into one of my in-ground fall gardens, and pray they survive. I've done some research online, and I can't find an answer on why they do this other than that it could be water-related. That doesn't make sense though since they do better in our clay ground than in a rich, daily-watered soil. Anyway, any last-minute suggestions or just comments? I'll probably plant them out tonight because after they wilt, they lose all flowers.
Maybe we should get a second opinion...
