Notes
'Johnny's Potomac Custom Mix' snapdragon (Antirrhinum majus 'Johnny's Potomac Custom Mix') 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 fragrant red, orange, and yellow flowers attract butterflies and hummingbirds.
Pairs well with Purple top, California poppy, and Blue mistflower.
