Notes
Orleans Red III-IV snapdragon (Antirrhinum majus Orleans Red III-IV) is an annual for borders, cut flowers, and containers. It is typically grown as an annual. It handles cool weather and a light frost. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. Deer rarely make it their first choice. Its fragrant flowers draw butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees, and it suits late summer and fall color palettes.
Pairs well with Purple top, Stock, and Red-hot poker.
