Florist Facts & Conditioning Tips

• Beware of Geotropism: Snapdragons are highly geotropic, meaning their growing tips will naturally bend upwards against gravity if laid flat or angled sharply. To maintain perfectly straight columns, always store and condition them strictly upright.
• Ethylene Sensitivity: Antirrhinums are highly sensitive to ethylene gas. Keep them far away from ripening fruit, decaying foliage, or exhaust fumes to prevent premature petal drop.
• Stripping Foliage: Strip away all lower foliage that will sit beneath the waterline. Leaving excess leaves submerged promotes rapid bacterial growth, which blocks the stems.
• Heavy Drinkers: Snapdragons consume vast amounts of water and prefer a deep drink. Use a clean vase, freshly cut the stems at an angle with a sharp knife, and use professional flower food to maximize their superb vase life.
