Notes
'Chantilly Light Salmon' snapdragon (Antirrhinum majus 'Chantilly Light Salmon') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, and containers. 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. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. The open-faced salmon and peach flowers are fragrant and attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds.
Pairs well with Amaranth, Fountain grass, and Garlic chives.
