Linaria: Fairy Bouquet

Linaria Fairy Bouquet is a delicate heirloom annual that brings soft, airy color and graceful movement to the garden. Its slender stems are covered in small, snapdragon-like blooms in a pastel mix of pink, lavender, purple, yellow, and white, creating a light, whimsical display perfect for borders and cottage-style plantings.

Blooming over a long period, Linaria is an excellent choice for adding texture and gentle color to flower beds, as well as a beautiful filler in fresh bouquets. Its fine, upright habit blends easily with other flowers and attracts pollinators throughout the season.

• Type: Heirloom annual
• Direct sow: Early spring or fall in mild climates
• Sun: Full sun to partial shade
• Spacing: 6–9 inches
• Height: 12–18 inches
• Days to bloom: 60–75 days

Best direct sown, as Linaria establishes quickly and prefers not to be transplanted. Thrives in cool conditions and well-drained soil. Keep soil lightly moist during germination, then water moderately once established. Deadheading can help extend the blooming period and encourage continued flowering.
