Angelonia (Summer Snapdragon)
Color Name: AngelMist Pink
The spreading habit of this Angelonia is perfectly suited for hanging baskets and combinations. The plants have height on the top of the pot, but then cascade over the edge as well. In containers it will function as both a filler and spiller. Their heat tolerance makes them an excellent choice for gardeners who live in climates with hot summers.
Angelonias will WOW gardeners with their beautiful shape and structure. They are cold temperature tolerant, and will flower well into the fall. Its sturdy flower stems are great for making vase arrangements providing enjoyment for 10 days or more. Blooms all season; heat and drought tolerant plants; grape-scented foliage; low maintenance.
Growing Tips: Angelonia are self-cleaning with no dead-heading necessary. They are heat-loving plants that will grow most vigorously and bloom best when the heat is on. They are best planted in mid-spring or later. Angelonia will tolerate wet feet and a fair amount of drought.
An application of fertilizer or compost on garden beds and regular fertilization of plants in pots will help ensure the best possible performance. We suggest fertilizing every two weeks during the hot summer months of June, July and August with Maxsea, which you can purchase at Zehr's. When planting in containers, hanging baskets and window boxes, we recommend using our potting soil which is specially formulated for our plants.
