Description
Madame Butterfly Rose Snapdragon Seeds grow Antirrhinum majus with graceful open ruffled blooms in a romantic rose-pink palette. The butterfly-style flowers feel lighter and softer than traditional snapdragons, while long upright stems make the variety useful for wedding-inspired bouquets, pastel cut-flower rows, and refined garden borders.
Why Grow It
- Rose-pink open ruffled flowers bring the soft Madame Butterfly snapdragon look.
- Long 24-36 in. stems suit bouquets, wedding palettes, and cut-flower production.
