Rocket Mix Snapdragon is a mix of reblooming tropical perennial often grown as an annual, with upright stems sporting narrow foliage. Vibrant two-lipped flowers bloom first through spring and again through fall. Grows best in moist, fertile well-drained soils. Heat and humidity, and frost tolerant. The Rocket series makes for great cut flowers as the more the stems are cut back the more flower spikes it will produce.
This mix is a random selection from the whole series, and can include rose shades, cherry, pink, orchid, red, golden, lemon, and white flowers.
