Notes

'Snapdragon, Mango Twist' snapdragon (Antirrhinum majus 'Snapdragon, Mango Twist') 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 sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. The fragrant blooms attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything.

Pairs well with Zinnia, Lanceleaf coreopsis, and Coneflower.
