Antirrhinum braun-blanquetti

Antirrhinum braun-blanquetii is a perennial snapdragon with classic pale yellow and white flowers hardy to zone 4.

Antirrhinum braun-blanquetii is a perennial snapdragon with classic pale yellow and white flowers in vertical spikes that grace this native from the Iberian Peninsula from May to September. The plants have a bushier form than the annual varieties and are hardy to zone 4, though we’d recommend a protective mulch in colder zones. Our seed-grown plants also exhibit light pink tones in some plants. A fine choice to combine with with Anthriscus ‘Ravenswing’ at the base of Lonicera ‘Halliana’. Provide excellent drainage in hot, sunny spots including in rock gardens, on arid slopes, and in hell strips. Attractive to bumblebees. Drought tolerant and deer resistant.
