Popular with bees, this dwarf snapdragon grows to 20cm tall and 15cm across in full sun or partial shade and a well-drained soil. The white and pink flowers are produced from May to September. These small plants are great for growing in pots, window boxes or the front of flower beds.
These are half-hardy perennial plants that will survive a mild winter in a soil that isn't waterlogged.
