FAQ
Is Twinny Appleblossom tall enough for cutting?
It is a compact snapdragon, so stems are shorter than florist strains but still useful for small bouquets, posies, and container cutting.
Does it handle heat?
The source variety notes warm-weather performance, but snapdragons still look best with steady moisture and relief from extreme heat.
Where should I plant it?
Use it in sunny to partly shaded containers, front borders, cottage beds, and pastel mixed plantings.
