Origin:

Snapdragons (Antirrhinum) are native to temperate regions of Europe and North Africa. They belong to the plantain family (Plantaginaceae).


Growth:

Snapdragons grow upright and form bushy, branched stems. Depending on the variety, they can reach a height of 15 cm to over 90 cm.


Leaves:

The leaves of snapdragons are lanceolate and can be dark green in color. They are usually arranged opposite each other and have a smooth texture.


Blossom:

The most distinctive features of snapdragons are their showy flowers, which resemble a snapdragon. They come in a variety of colors including white, yellow, pink, red, orange and purple.


Location:

Snapdragons prefer sunny locations with well-drained soil. They thrive best in humus-rich soil that is kept moderately moist.


Care:

Snapdragons are easy-care plants. They require regular watering, especially during dry periods you can water a little more as the root ball should not dry out. The plants can be cut back in the fall if necessary.
