Candy Showers Deep Purple Snapdragon is a compact trailing tropical perennial often grown as an annual, with narrow foliage and non-stop flowering. Sweetly fragrant, deep purple flowers bloom on sturdy stems from spring into fall. Grows best in moist, fertile well-drained soils. Heat and humidity tolerant. While often treated as an annual, once established Snapdragons can withstand sub-freezing temperatures down to 25F!
