Snapdragon ‘Costa Apricot’
ETA: Shipping begins Mid February
An old-fashioned charmer with warm, painterly colour.
Snapdragon ‘Costa Apricot’ is one of those timeless varieties that never loses its appeal. Each bloom resembles a tiny dragon face, opening along thick, towering stems that feel sturdy and generous in the hand. The colour is especially lovely, a soft butter-yellow base brushed with rose and apricot tones that shift gently up the stem, giving arrangements warmth and quiet complexity.
This hardy annual is exceptionally productive, delivering long, strong stems that hold their shape beautifully in the vase. It’s a reliable solution when you want height, color, and classic garden character without fuss. Whether used as a focal flower or woven through mixed bouquets, it brings a nostalgic elegance that feels both familiar and fresh.
Because some flowers earn their place year after year.

Seed Sowing & Growing Notes:
Start seeds indoors 8 to 10 weeks before last frost. Transplant outdoors once the weather has warmed. Seeds are very small, so bottom-watering is recommended until seedlings emerge to avoid disturbing them.
Harvesting & Vase Life:
Harvest when only the bottom 2 to 3 flowers on a stem are open, before insects can pollinate them. Expect a vase life of 7 to 10 days.
A must-grow snapdragon that delivers warmth, structure, and old-world beauty to the cutting garden.
