24 Plug Plants (V70500)

Pot up Antirrhinum plugs and grow them on in warm, frost-free conditions for transplanting into beds, borders and containers later on. Pinch out the growing tips while snapdragon plants are still small to encourage bushier growth. Once they are well grown, acclimatise snapdragons to outdoor conditions over 7-10 days before planting outdoors in fertile, well drained soil in a sunny location. When transplanting antirrhinum plants into large containers, water sparingly until plugs are fully rooted in.

Feed and water snapdragon plants frequently throughout the summer to ensure an endless supply of flowers. Deadhead faded antirrhinum flowers before the seedpods are produced to encourage further blooming.

Van Meuwen strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.
