Potomac™ Appleblossom Snapdragon

Potomac™ Appleblossom is a white-and-rose snapdragon selected for cut-flower production. PanAmerican Seed reports 39–60-inch stems and describes a bicolor selection suited to high-light, long-day production. ## Flowers and cutting The [exact cultivar profile](https://www.panamseed.com/Products/057801176000289/snapdragon-potomac-appleblossom/) identifies Appleblossom PAS3495, gives stem length as 39–60 inches, and lists late spring through late summer flowering and upright habit. It recommends the Potomac family for greenhouse or high-tunnel crops in periods of high light, long days, and warm temperatures. The breeder describes the flowers as white and rose bicolour. ## Growing conditions For snapdragons generally, [NC State Extension](https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/antirrhinum-majus/common-name/common-snapdragon/) recommends full sun to part shade and moist, rich, well-drained soil. It describes the species as a tender perennial often grown as an annual, with low drought tolerance and reduced performance in summer heat. These broad garden conditions complement the breeder’s production guidance; they do not establish an exact cultivar spread. ## Maintenance Water at the soil line and avoid overhead irrigation. Harvest stems for floral use and support tall plants where they may lean. Watch for rust and leaf diseases during humid weather.
