Florist's Choice Snapdragon

The Dragon Flower, commonly known as Snapdragon, is believed to have originated as a wildflower native to Spain and Italy. By gently squeezing the sides of the flower you can see the jaws of a dragon head open and close with a snap.

Derived from the Greek words anti meaning like, and rhin meaning nose, antirrhinum (botanical name) describes the snout-shaped flower.

Legend says that wearing a snapdragon concealed in one’s clothes made a person appear fascinating and cordial. Snapdragons were said to protect people from deceit or curses. Snapdragons symbolize deception, strength and graciousness.

Florist’s Choice bouquets may vary in color and variety based on what’s fresh and in season—but they’ll always be beautiful.
