Notes
'Potomac Pink' snapdragon (Antirrhinum majus 'Potomac Pink') 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. Deer tend to pass it by. Its fragrant rose blooms attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees.
Pairs well with Goldenrod, Stock, and Society garlic.
