Description
(Antirrhinum hispanicum )
The pure white flowers smother the trailing stems over the spring months. Cutting back produces a further flowering flush.
POSITION & USES
In the garden trailing snapdragons are suited to planting in rock pockets, over retaining walls and to the front of beds containing other small perennials. They are ideally suited to containers and hanging baskets where they make a “full-on” eye catching display.
CULTIVATION
Prefers a moist, well drained open soil with plenty of organic matter. Prune back lightly after flowering to encourage a second flush.
FERTILISING
Regular applications of Seasol and Power Feed will keep it looking its best.
