Container Gardening

Snapdragons

13 years ago

I planted snapdragons in containers this year for the first time. They have all died. All of my other plants in containers, some in the same containers as the snapdragons, are doing well. I used good potting mix and have watered regularly. Everything I have seen online says they are so easy to grow. Has anyone had any experience with snapdragons in containers or should I just avoid them in the future?

Thanks!
