Pure White Angelonia







Sweet delicate flowers on the upright spikes.
This Summer Snapdragon is perennial and also very hardy.
I fall in love with my Angelonia Angelface White or Summer Snapdragon.
She is attractive  to bees, birds, and butterflies,

Angelonia is the wind  and the desease resistant plants for the windy garden, and perennial too.
Blooming in Summer time,  but  if you have a  bright sunny spot indoor, you can even keep it flowering in Winter. Also you dont need to dead heading the flowers.

If Angelonia plants begin to sprawl in midsummer, cut them back by about half their height. They will soon regrow and produce a fresh flush of flowers.

Polyanthus starts flowering from early Winter, continue right through until Christmas.
Often treated as a plant with a short life span.
