Early Potomac™ Orange Snapdragon

Early Potomac™ Orange is an orange-flowered *Antirrhinum majus* selection for professional cut-flower production. PanAmerican Seed’s [exact PAS3425 product page](https://www.panamseed.com/Products/057801176003807/snapdragon-early-potomac-orange/) identifies the cultivar, upright habit, sun exposure, 39–60 inch stem height, and 10–12 inch spread; it lists greenhouse and high-tunnel production. ## Production and flowering The breeder classifies this snapdragon as Group 3, suited to medium-to-long days and moderate-to-high light. The product page lists flowers from late spring through late summer and recommends spring and autumn production programs. These are crop windows rather than fixed outdoor bloom dates, which vary with light, temperature, and planting date. ## Siting Choose a sunny protected production site. PanAmerican describes greenhouse or high-tunnel growing and notes that high light supports high-density production; use the breeder’s seasonal and crop-stage guidance for local conditions. ## Maintenance The [PanAmerican cut-flower production guide](https://www.panamseed.com/documents/catalogs/17196_PIG_ENG_LR.pdf) recommends two support nets at minimum, with three preferred, and raising the upper net as stems lengthen. Harvest and handle stems using the grower’s post-harvest practices to preserve straightness and quality.
