Notes
'Madame Butterfly Bronze' snapdragon (Antirrhinum majus 'Madame Butterfly Bronze') 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. The fragrant coral and apricot double-petal flowers attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal.
Pairs well with Calendula, African marigold, and Anemone.
