😊 puts a smile on my face. Happy holidays.

This video had a lot of great info! Re: I didn't know that when a bee polinates it makes the bloom fall off. I harvest when bottom 1/3 are open. Also didn't know about using tall, narrow bucket so they are straight up in bucket. Thank you the tips!

[@CoramDeoFarm]

You’re welcome! Thank you for watching

[@Redbarngardens]

Thank you so much for this very helpful information!! I was in a snapdragon haze of confusion! This totally clarified all of it!! They have become a favored flower to grow after only 2 years!!

[@patriciakeys4873]

Thank you for another wonderful video. I just may have to bite the bullet and pay for Patreon too, which will be my very first Patreon. =)

[@CoramDeoFarm]

I think it’s worth it! We’d love to have you 😊

[@drhappyplants]

Thanks for the great info- everywhere wants us to start them in july and have them in September when its still scorching here in texas. Your perspective makes practical sense! I will start mine afterall

[@CoramDeoFarm]

Yes exactly!

[@amarx6248]

Good Sunday morning to everyone! Thanks for this info!

[@sarahsbloomsnz]

Good info! Absolutely agree with the netting, it is definitely a must.

[@Joyfulfarmer]

Is there a product you prefer for foliar feeding?

[@athomas897]

Great content. Good Sunday morning to you .

We are buying a piece of property and my husband wants to put a vineyard there. I would also like to sell flowers. My husband thinks we can afford a hoop house. Besides the snapdragons what else would you put in the hoop house to protect it, Dahlias I'm sure. What are some other suggestions?

[@bryonyhellis]

So informative, thank you!

[@denisekelley2292]

Thanks for the info. While you are in a very different climate, I can adapt your info to my planting times/conditions. I'm a zone 8 in the Pacific Northwest, in this climate it is best to plant all of the groups out in the fall and they will naturally bloom in succession at their preferred time. Really takes the guess work out of planting. I also harvest from mid-May through end of July. They keep growing all summer, not good in the vase after July.

Hi - thanks for the video. I had great snaps last year, but this year they were a total bust. Johnny's says Mme Butterfly snaps (Mix) are a group 3-4. Do you find them to act more like a 1-2 in your area, or is that info from a seed packet from a different company? I can't overwinter snaps here in Qc as our freeze is too deep. so I have to plant out in early spring. I am hoping to eventually land on just one variety that will work across the whole of the summer, I am going to trial Mme Butterfly in 2025 to see if it might be the one!

[@CoramDeoFarm]

Definitely don’t agree that Madame is group 3/4. It is maybe 2/3 but i put them closer to the 2 group for heat tolerance

[@IsabelLawrence-h1o]

Shame as my seeds say to plant in Spring in sub-tropics, which I’ve just done. All madam butterfly. Will look for group 3 and 4 next time.

[@Newgardener9b]

Which one was your Mother’s Day recipe? Love this information!

[@CoramDeoFarm]

None. We used peonies for Mother’s Day. No snaps

[@rodneydevier4800]

You do all varieties with plugs?

[@LisaGuigar]

Thanks so much!,

[@ChulaVlogs]

One last question if I start from seed, do I have to pot up for transplanting to my field?

[@CoramDeoFarm]

No

[@carolleimbach6407]

I had thrips so bad, and couldn't use them. About 250 plants. 😢

[@kathrynburgess8987]

I get thrips too. I hate them.

[@maddiemartin6725]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge!! I would love a more in depth video like this on lisianthus!

[@CoramDeoFarm]

We have one! 😊

[@ashiapassee7588]

Same here!
