Toadflax Linaria purpurea 'Canon Went' is a plant that, despite its fragile appearance, will forgive you many beginner mistakes if you give it the most important things – sun and well-drained soil. Plant the seedlings you receive from us in a fully sunny and warm location where their potential will fully show. The soil should be rather poor, loamy to sandy, and most importantly perfectly drained. If you have heavy clay soil in your garden, it is essential to mix sand or fine gravel into the planting hole so that water drains quickly. When planting, maintain a spacing of approximately 30 cm, which corresponds to roughly 11 plants per square meter. This spacing will ensure sufficient air circulation between the delicate stems and allow the plant's vertical character to stand out.
Regarding care during the season, toadflax is very modest. It requires only moderate watering; once the seedlings are well-rooted, the plant becomes highly tolerant to drought. Waterlogging is much more dangerous for it than a lack of moisture, so water only when the soil is dry. A great advantage of this cultivar is the absence of common diseases and pests. To keep your toadflax blooming repeatedly from June to October, we recommend cutting back the spent stems in mid-summer. This intervention will encourage the formation of new buds, and the plant will maintain a more compact shape. Moreover, the flowers are great for cutting into a vase, where they last up to two weeks, so you can combine pruning with creating home decorations.
Wintering toadflax requires a little attention regarding moisture. Although it is frost-resistant down to -23 °C (zone 6a), its arch-enemy is not frost, but winter dampness. It rots in heavier soils during the winter. If you grow it in a suitably well-drained location, it overwinters without problems without the need for covering. Remember that this is a short-lived perennial that will only last a few years in one place. However, the plant reliably maintains itself on the site through self-seeding. If you want to grow toadflax in a container, it is possible, but choose a pot with drainage holes and put a layer of expanded clay at the bottom. Lighten the container substrate with perlite or sand so the roots do not sit in water.
The information given is based on our experience, please use it as a guide only. Times may vary depending on the season, climate, location, sowing and transplanting dates and possibly also the conditions in the greenhouse/greenhouse. We always recommend testing how the plant performs in your conditions. Please do not take this as a guarantee.
