Notes
'Potomac Appleblossom' snapdragon (Antirrhinum majus 'Potomac Appleblossom') 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 to moist, sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. The fragrant pink, white, or bicolor blooms attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees on stems that reach 32 to 48 inches. Deer rarely make it their first choice.
Pairs well with Cornflower, Garden phlox, and Johnny jump up.
