Exceptionally Vigorous Plants Loaded with Dense Spikes of Clear, Vibrant Colour.
Panorama Snapdragon (Antirrhinum majus) is an exceptionally vigorous open-pollinated variety engineered for maximum visual impact.

Featuring clear, vibrant colours and an upright, sturdy growth habit, Panorama is the premier variety recommended for mass bedding displays, mid-border plantings, and fresh cut-flower arrangements.

What you need to know to Plant & Grow
Panorama Snapdragon can be started early indoors for early summer displays or direct-sown into garden beds in late spring.
-
Indoor Sowing (Recommended for Early Blooms): For June and July flowers, start seeds indoors in a sterile soil-less mix in mid-March. Surface sow seeds directly on top of the medium—leave uncovered, as light is necessary for germination. Maintain a temperature of 21°C for the 14-day germination period.
-
Growing On & Transplanting: Once germinated, grow seedlings on under lights at a cooler temperature of 15°C. Harden off seedlings carefully and move them outside in late May after hard spring frost risks have passed, spacing plants 30 cm apart.
-
Outdoor Direct Sowing: Alternatively, select a sunny to partially shaded garden site outdoors in late spring and sow seeds 3 mm deep. Thin or transplant seedlings to 30 cm apart when they reach 5 cm in height.
-
Care & Summer Performance: These heat- and disease-resistant snapdragons bloom continuously throughout the growing season. While they perform best in cooler weather and may languish slightly during intense mid-summer heatwaves (30°C and up), they reliably rebound with fresh flower spikes as temperatures moderate into late summer and autumn.
Why Panorama Snapdragon Seeds belong in Your Garden
If you want robust, medium-height snapdragons that produce a relentless blanket of brilliant colour for garden beds and vases, Panorama is an unbeatable selection. Its strong stems, high flower density, and excellent cooler-weather performance make it a top choice for Canadian home landscapes.
