Description:
Antirrhinum majus, commonly known as snapdragon, is a herbaceous plant with spicy-scented, long-blooming flowers. The dark red petals turn nearly black in the fall, while the foliage shifts to a dark burgundy hue. This plant is typically grown as an annual, although it is a perennial in its native regions of southern-central France and northeastern Spain. Snapdragon flowers are edible and often used as a garnish. The plant prefers moist, rich, well-drained soil and full to part sun exposure. It is pollinated by bumblebees and is known for its vibrant color combinations, making it a popular choice for mass plantings and container gardens.
