Snaps for Greenhouse Forcing 
ORIGINATOR’S STRAINS 
Hybrid Snapdragons have practically eliminated the open pollinated sorts. They grow more vigorously, more 
uniform, and produce more cut flowers per square foot. Many of them are especially suited to single stem 
culture, which method yields a higher profit because of the shorter time required to mature a crop. Spacing 
3” x 4” gives a better dollar return although quality will not be as good. 
Germination is sometimes difficult under summer conditions. Snap seed germinates best at a temperature 
of 55-60°. Summer sowings are best kept in a cool basement until germination takes place, after which the 
plants should be carefully hardened to light and air.
