Notes

'Madame Butterfly Mix' snapdragon (Antirrhinum majus 'Madame Butterfly Mix') is an annual for borders, containers, and cut flowers. It is typically grown as an annual. It grows well in cool weather and can ride out a light frost. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. The double petals set this mix apart, and the red, yellow, and pink blooms are fragrant. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit the flowers.

Pairs well with Purple top, Stock, Anemone, and Jacob’s ladder.
