Snapdragon Brighton Rock is a charming heirloom variety that features a delightful blend of pastel bi-colored blooms. The common name "snapdragon" comes from the flower's resemblance to a dragon's mouth when its throat is squeezed. If that isn’t strange enough, the seed pods of the snapdragon turn into eerie skull-like shapes once they die. This unusual appearance likely contributed to its symbolism in the Victorian language of flowers, where it represented deception and presumption. A fun fact: Only large insects like bumblebees can pollinate snapdragons, as their petals are too heavy for smaller insects to pry apart.
