Antirrhinum hispanicum ‘Trailing Pink’

HAT COLOUR: Pink

SPECIAL QUALITIES: A compact, trailing snapdragon with typical large flowers that cover the plant

FLOWERS: The mid pink flowers smother the trailing stems over the spring months. Cutting back produces a further flowering flush. Masses of medium-sized pink snapdragon flowers on a soft stemmed, fleshy prostrate evergreen perennial plant.

PLANTS NEEDED PER SQUARE METRE: 4

HABIT: This snapdragon is a soft stemmed perennial with attractive, rounded, grayish leaves and grows into a small, compact plant.

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.
