Super productive variety
Easy to grow
Deep, rich velvet, almost-black flowers, with pure-white petal bases – the perfect thing for arranging simply, on its own
Antirrhinum flowers are edible and can be used to decorate puddings, cakes or party cocktails. They are not to everyone's taste as they are slightly bitter, but they're completely safe to eat.
