This amazing deer-resistant snapdragon from Spain was shared with us by the JC Raulston Arboretum. Antirrhinum hispanicum makes a 1' tall x 2' wide clump of fuzzy grey-green leaves, topped all summer with spikes of pink and yellow bicolor flowers. Antirrhinum hispanicum thrives in our hot, humid summers where most snapdragons fear to tread. Antirrhinum hispanicum prefers a baking hot, well-drained sunny site.
