Trailing Mini Snapdragons

20 years ago

Hello,

My mom has some really nice trailing mini snapdragons (at least that's what they look like) in a hanging basket. I'd like to grab some of the seeds off these when its available. Does anyone know what the pods look like? There were a few dried heads but nothing inside when I crushed a few this afternoon.

Thanks!

Hi Lis,
Snapdragons get puffy looking light brown pods with little holes on top. Then if you tip the pods upside down and shake, lots of little black seeds come out. Are you sure though that they are snapdragons? Does your mom have the plant tag still?
If she doesn't, can you post a picture?

Hi Remy,
No tag in the pot, she bought them at costco so thats the only label on them. I just did some online searching and it looks like it could be nemesia. Pretty pink and yellow and some blue flowers. Still clueless on pods though.
