Notes

'Guinea Gold' snapdragon (Antirrhinum majus 'Guinea Gold') 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 moisture. It blooms in spring, summer, and autumn, and butterflies, hummingbirds, and birds visit the flowers. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal.

Pairs well with Purple top, Columbine, and Morning glory.
