Snap Dragons

Anyone have the tall snap dragons. I planted them mid April and the strom we had friday made them fall. Now most of them are still growing about to bloom but are sitting at the ground. Would it be OK if I ran sticks up along side them to keep them straight?

Yes, use stakes to pull them upright and tie them loosely to the stake. They'll just fall back over if you don't stake them. I like to use these foam-covered soft plant ties for my plants. You just cut them to length and can use them year after year.

You can also use metal supports like this or this to keep them upright.
