The charm of snapdragon flowers in gardens is strong but fleeting, as these flowers are cool weather annuals that quickly fade when summer turns up the heat. However, angelonia is a lookalike plant ready to stand strong in landscapes long after the last snapdragon has wilted. The fruity scent of angelonia is a bonus and is especially strong on hot summer evenings.
When you first plant your antirrhinum seeds, you will need to keep them moist for the first 2 to 3 weeks. Once the plants are established in the soil, they'll need approximately 3 cm (1.18 inches) of water each week. You should water near the plant's crown, and don't water them from overhead.
Cacti fertilizer requirements are pretty simple. Any good houseplant food (diluted to half) that's higher in phosphorus than nitrogen is a good choice. A 5-10-5 solution can work well.
Angelonia plants love hot summer weather and high humidity. They thrive in the deep South when sultry conditions dominate. Angelonia plants also fare well in the Southwest, with a little extra watering.
Whether it be plastic or clay, make sure the pot you select has drainage holes in the bottom to prevent over-watering.
Angelonia has no known toxicity to pets or people but is not meant to be eaten. Plant toxicity is dose-dependent, and consuming large amounts may cause side effects.
