Snapdragons are a native of the Mediterranean region, and during the past decade many new forms have been developed, according to N. C. Agricultural Extension Service specialists. The short types, such as Floral Carpet and Pixie, grow to a height of six to eight inches and serve as an excellent edging plant. Promenade, Sprite, Hit Parade and Butterfly are of an intermediate height. Ttoey serve as bedding plants in the landscape and yet, are tall enough to be cut. The tall' r group, which includes I ladam Butterfly and tt« Rockets, are used primarily as a background plant or for cutting. Snapdragons are available in a , multitude of colon that range from white to pink, yellow, broMw, rose and red. Also there are many shades of each color. If you want to grow snapdragons successfully, pay particular attention to soil preparation. Snapdragons are sensitive to root rot diseases, and these diseases are more likely in poorly drained soil. Raise your snapdragon beds to improve drainage. Add .matter such as peatmoss, pine bark and rotted sawdust to insure better drainage and aeration of the soil Locate your snapdragons where they will receive four to five hours of direct sunlight each day. Partial shade for the remainder of the day is all right. Small plants started in cell paks or peat pots are recommended for the average gardener. You can buy the plants at garden centers discount stores and plant shops along with other bedding plants. Snapdragons should not be planted too deeply. Deep planting will only encourage stem and root rot. The short varieties should be spaced six to 10 inches apart. Taller var ieties should be at least 12 inches apart. A good complete fertilizer, such as 8-8-8 or 10-10-10. should be mixed into the soil prior to planting at the rate of two pounds per 100 square feet. The soil pH should be adjusted to between 6 and 6.5. A soil test will indicate the amount of lime required to adjust the soil pH to this level. The best way to keep snapdragons in bloom during the growing season is to keep the flowers cut. In other words, don't allow the flowering shoots to set fruit. By removing the old blooms on a regular basis, you will have a succession of blooms until cold weather kills the plants. /To toast coconut or nuts, bake at 375 degrees, F. for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally until golden.
