Antirrhinum majus, commonly known as the snapdragon, is a flowering plant in the family Plantaginaceae. Native to the Mediterranean region, it is widely cultivated for its colorful and distinctive flowers that resemble the face of a dragon. The plant is a subshrub and prefers temperate climates.
Snapdragons thrive in bright, direct sunlight and moderate temperatures. They prefer moderate humidity and should be watered when the soil partially dries out. Regular deadheading of spent flowers will encourage continuous blooming.
تربة
Snapdragons prefer well-draining loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.
سماد
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to promote healthy growth and vibrant blooms.
إعادة السمعة
Repot snapdragons when they outgrow their current container or if the soil becomes compacted. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage and fresh potting mix. Repotting is best done in early spring before the growing season begins.
الانتشار
Snapdragons can be propagated from seeds or cuttings. Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date or take cuttings from healthy plants in late spring or early summer. Ensure the cuttings have at least two sets of leaves and plant them in a well-draining potting mix.
تشذيب
Prune snapdragons regularly to remove spent flowers and encourage new growth. Pinch back the stems to promote bushier growth and more blooms. Pruning is best done during the growing season.
تسمم
Snapdragons are generally non-toxic to pets and humans. However, it is always best to prevent pets and children from ingesting any plant material.
إضافي
Snapdragons are known for their long blooming period and can add vibrant color to gardens and containers. They are also popular as cut flowers due to their unique appearance and variety of colors.
