Notes
'Chantilly Purple' snapdragon (Antirrhinum majus 'Chantilly Purple') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, containers, and pollinator gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It handles cool weather and a light frost. 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 fragrant purple flowers are open-faced and attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees.
Pairs well with Stock, Blue mistflower, and Tuberose.
