Notes
'Avignon Light Rose II' snapdragon (Antirrhinum majus 'Avignon Light Rose II') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, containers, and pollinator gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It shrugs off cool spells and light frost, though a hard freeze will damage it. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. The fragrant rose flowers bloom in spring, summer, and autumn, and butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit them. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal.
Pairs well with Purple top, California poppy, and Red-hot poker.
