Description

Botanical Interests' Snapdragon 'Night and Day' Seeds bring a striking visual contrast to your garden with their unique bicolor flowers. These 1″ blossoms begin with dark red and creamy white hues, transforming to near-black with the cooler fall weather. Their foliage also changes, turning dark burgundy, which enhances the stunning contrast with the white jaws. Known for their spicy scent, these long-blooming, pollinator-friendly flowers are perfect for cut arrangements and add an edible touch to salads, desserts, and cold drinks. Ideal for containers and flower beds, they thrive in cool weather and are deer-resistant.
