Accidentally broke some stems of snapdragon

| Hi, I just planted a snapdragon (perennial) in my garden bed, but while I was removing it from the pot, I accidentally broke of two stems from the bottom of the plant. The roots were not damaged though. The plant has other remaining stems, it's just those two that broke off. I immediately stuck the broken off stems back into the soil and watered with Seasol. I'm worried that the plant may not survive the stress. Will the two broken stems grow roots and become other plants and will my main plant survive? I'm a novice so I need someone's advice. Thank you... |

| Don't worry! It's often a good idea to prune plants back anyway when transplanting. As long as you acclimatised them first they'll be fine. |
