Description

Contrary to popular belief, wild snapdragons and certain varieties are perfectly perennial if given poor, sandy, stony soil in full sun, sheltered from cold winds. Sow wild in cracks in walls, slabs or rocks.

An old, hardy variety with purple foliage and blood-red flowers. For borders and gravel gardens.
