Description

This has open, strawberry-pink flowers, without the usual Snapdragon double lip, easy and super-reliable and hardier than other Antirrhinum types, surviving the winter outside with us in Sussex. The Chantillys also have delicious scent and excellent vase life.

Care Tips

Choose a spot in full sun or light shade, ideally with moist but well-drained soil. For growing in pots, use as large a container as possible. Keep picking (not to the ground but to above a pair of leaves), and these will keep flowering.
