The snapdragon feels at home here

The snapdragon is quite undemanding. It prefers a sunny and warm spot, but also thrives well in light shade.

However, the perennial is very sensitive to waterlogging. Therefore, the soil should definitely be permeable and not too wet. Be sure to loosen up heavy subsoil with some compost, sand or fine gravel. Add a drainage layer of expanded clay (€19.73) or gravel to the planting hole.

tips

To keep the soil permeable, it is recommended to loosen it regularly by hoeing. This means that rainwater does not accumulate in the immediate vicinity of the plant.
