Kell those are beautiful!
Oh so pretty, Kell, are you growing these?
Ditto they are beautiful and snaps are one of my favourites. Where did you find the seeds?
I cheated! I bought these as 4 inch plants from here

I just love this site! It is so Berkeley!!! She sells in most of the nurseries around here and I also go to her growing grounds and buy from there.
Joann, a little side trip for you when you visit your sister, it is about 20 minutes from your sister I would think!
I will definitely keep that in mind, it won't be till fall now before I come south. My sis will be back here in June for my daughter's wedding.
I have never seen this color snapdragon this color! Do you have any seeds from it?
Sadly no, or really I have not checked. I have had a hectic summer and fall, I have spent over 2 months divided in 3 trips, 3,000 miles from home. I am just glad most things survived my husband! LOL
I love those snapdragons! They have such a beautiful color! I want some of those... but I have never seen any ANYWHERE like that! Where did you get yours?
