Know before you buy
These are pelleted seeds, which makes them easier to handle during the sowing process. Because they require a specific soil temperature of 65-70°F and are best started via transplant, they are well-suited for gardeners who have a seed-starting setup or a greenhouse.
Matricaria Vegmo Snowball is prized for its excellent post-harvest life. When harvested at the right stage, these stems can last significantly longer in a vase than many other delicate filler flowers.
While not strictly required, pinching the stems once the plants are established can encourage branching, which leads to a higher volume of blooms per plant. This is a common technique to maximize the yield for bouquet production.
With a mature spread of 12-15 inches and a height of up to 36 inches, these plants can be grown in large containers. Ensure the pot has adequate drainage and receives full sun throughout the day to support their growth.
Yes, the foliage of the Matricaria Vegmo Snowball is known for its distinct, pleasant scent. This adds an extra sensory layer to floral arrangements beyond just the visual appeal of the white blooms.
