'Madam Butterfly' snapdragon (Antirrhinum majus 'Madam Butterfly') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, and containers. It is typically grown as an annual. Cool weather suits it, and it can take a light frost. This plant likes full or part sun and average moisture. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal. It blooms in spring, summer, and autumn, and it draws butterflies and hummingbirds.
