If you’ve ever admired a Snapdragon, then you’re following in the footsteps of America’s third President and the author of the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson! Native to Southern Europe, North America and the Western Mediterranean, Snapdragons (also called Antirrhinum) grew in Thomas Jefferson’s childhood garden, so there is a long history of enjoying these wonderful flowers.

These short-lived perennials haven’t changed much over the centuries, both in looks and popularity. Flowering between June until October, Snapdragons are charming blooms which we at Bunches think add a sweet addition to your flowers.

However, the meaning of Snapdragons is varied; according to Flower.Style Magazine the can represent graciousness and/or deception, but they can also mean presumption according to Karen Azoulay’s Flowers and their Meanings.

Although the symbolism of the Snapdragon is varied, it hasn’t affected how much people love it! You find a selection of stunning Snapdragons and many more floral gifts at bunches.co.uk
