Rembrandt Snapdragon
Antirrhinum majus
Conventionally Grown
During the Dutch Golden Age, the art of plant breeding and painting flourished like a field of flowers in bloom. Artists, agriculturalists, and horticulturalists alike found ways to celebrate the beauty and diversity of flowers. Painters, like Rembrandt van Rijn, captured this obsession with plants by representing everyday farmers, riotous flower bouquets, sweeping Dutch landscapes, farmer's market scenes, and the flurry of ships coming in and out of ports carrying goods, including flower seeds.
A long-lasting and hardy flower for bouquets. These snaps are vibrantly and masterfully colored with bright rosy-orange upper petals and yellow-streaked with orange on their lower petals. Plants produce gallery-worthy blossoms deep into the fall, and are also great for cutting for bouquets.

About the artist
I bought the cute art pack after touring a southern garden in Charleston SC. I planted a few inside with grow lights and heat mats. They grew to an inch or two before I planted them out. They thrived and have come back every year. Also have reseeded. I love the rich colors. Late Spring blooms in PNW zone 8b.
Lovely Snapdragons that bloom well into the fall. They took a while to get going, but very hardy once they grow. Will definitely buy again.
Great seeds Great Company
Nothing wrong with the seeds, but the art is AI, at least in part. If you look up the artist you will find that (despite being very talented at oil paintings) all of their recent output is AI. The background of this "painting" is a total mess.
Hello Warren, Thank you so much for your interest in the art. This seed pack art was designed and painted in 2018, well before AI was at the level it is today. This is a human generated oil painting.
Jeepers I love these! Stunning flowers. And they've provided us with an intriguing mystery! They overwintered, which was a pleasant surprise, but when they started to flower this year they are no longer the subtle colors they were last year! Now they're tomato red and safety-vest yellow. Totally fascinating! I could understand if these plants were growing from last year's plants' seeds, but these are the same plants! Brain bender! We'll be sure to start seeds each year now, but this has been a really fun experiment!
These snapdragons were great performers this entire year. The colors are astonishingly beautiful and created sweeping pastel highlights throughout the entire garden.
The seeds look good. Ready to plant.
Service was excellent. Item arrived promptly. 4 stars only because I haven't planted and grown them yet.
I purchased snapdragons from multiple seed companies and of all of the varieties, this one had hands down the best germination. By a lot. Really excited to see what these beauties will look like in my garden this year.
