The Fairy Bouquet Mix produces a captivating array of pinks, purples, lavenders, yellows, creams, and bicolors, ensuring your garden is alive with a painter’s palette of hues. Each flower features an elegant spur, reminiscent of miniature snapdragons, and blooms in dense clusters that sway gracefully in the breeze.

The plants reach a graceful height of 9–15 inches, making them perfect for layering in garden designs. They are drought-tolerant once established and prefer full sun, though they will appreciate a touch of afternoon shade in hotter climates.

Pollinator Paradise & Garden Benefits
Fairy Bouquet Snapdragons are bee and butterfly magnets, drawing beneficial insects that help improve the health and yield of your garden. They also make excellent cut flowers for charming floral arrangements, lasting up to a week in a vase when harvested at peak bloom.

Historical & Cultural Appeal
Linaria maroccana has been a staple in European gardens for centuries, valued for its long bloom season, easy self-seeding habits, and cottage garden aesthetic. Its name “toadflax” comes from its resemblance to wild flax, though it belongs to the plantain family. Gardeners love its ability to naturalize, returning year after year in a delightful, self-sown tapestry.

Growing Tips for Success

• Sow Directly: Scatter seeds directly into prepared garden soil after the last frost, or start indoors 6–8 weeks before planting out.

• Germination: Seeds need light to germinate, press gently into soil without covering. Keep evenly moist until seedlings emerge.

• Spacing: Thin seedlings to 6–8 inches apart for optimal airflow and abundant blooms.

• Deadheading: Remove spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming.

• Watering: Keep soil moderately moist but not waterlogged; plants are drought-tolerant once mature.

• Naturalizing: Allow some blooms to go to seed for effortless reseeding the following year.

Ideal For

• Cottage gardens and informal flower beds

• Borders, edging, and rock gardens

• Pollinator-friendly gardens

• Patio pots, window boxes, and hanging baskets
