Potomac ‘Early White’ – Tall, Elegant White Snapdragon 

For gardeners who love bright, uplifting flowers that work with absolutely every planting scheme, Potomac ‘Early White’ is a must-grow. This elegant snapdragon produces tall stems packed with creamy-white to pure-white blooms, giving borders a clean, serene look and offering the perfect structural stem for cutting. It’s part of the premium Potomac series, known for strong stems, uniformity, and excellent vase life — but this particular variety flowers earlier than the rest, giving you a brilliant head start to your snapdragon season.

White snapdragons are incredibly useful, both in the garden and the vase. They pair beautifully with pastels, brights, soft foliage tones, and romantic cutting flowers. Potomac ‘Early White’ stands tall and confident, creating gorgeous vertical lines in borders and bringing a sense of brightness to any space. Whether you use it as a focal point, a mixer, or a calming neutral among stronger colours, it never looks out of place.

In the cutting patch, this variety is invaluable. The tall, uniform stems are easy to harvest and arrange, and the blooms last beautifully in the vase. Because it flowers earlier than the standard Potomac varieties, it bridges the gap between spring flowers and the start of high-summer stems — giving you that cherished continuity that so many growers aim for. It’s also excellent for summer weddings, natural bouquets, and classic country-style arrangements.

Your plants are grown here in our South Devon nursery, raised from seed in peat-free compost and tended with care from day one. Each order contains 6 jumbo plug plants — strong, well-rooted, and ready to plant straight into the garden after frost. We pack your order using our eco-conscious hado bags, which are either biodegradable or reusable, ensuring plants stay protected without unnecessary waste.

Why Potomac ‘Early White’ Is So Useful

White flowers bring balance to the garden. They soften bold colours, brighten shady corners, and create a gentle rhythm through borders. Potomac ‘Early White’ is especially valuable because it flowers early enough to stretch your blooming season, while still offering the classic Potomac traits: tall stems, excellent strength, and dependable performance.

Pollinators adore snapdragons too. Their classic lip-shaped blooms are irresistible to bees, and this variety’s height makes them easy to find.
