Linaria maroccana Licilia Violet | Toadflax – Baby Snapdragon
Quick-Growing Annual with Stunning Deep Violet-Blue Blooms
Linaria maroccana Licilia Violet is a fast-growing, elegant annual that produces a breathtaking display of deep violet-blue flowers with bright yellow throats. Resembling miniature snapdragons, these delicate spire-shaped flowers create a soft, cloud-like effect in borders and flower beds, adding charm and movement to any garden setting. Perfect for naturalizing, these blooms intermingle beautifully with other flowers and provide a striking contrast to spring favorites like tulips and ranunculus.
This hardy annual is ideal for creating colorful, textured arrangements in both garden beds and floral bouquets. With a long flowering period of approximately two months and excellent vase life, Licilia Violet is a must-have for gardeners and florists alike.
