Chantilly has taken gardeners by storm, delighting with its new "butterfly" or "open-hearted" flower form (which results in larger blooms) and longer life in the vase. This tall Snap is a joy for cutflower lovers, and we are thrilled to make the mix of all 7 exciting Chantilly colors available
This is one of the "butterfly form" Snapdragons, so-called because the flowers are held open instead of "snapped" shut. We like the idea of calling them open-mouthed, though, because not only is this dragon roaring, but all your garden visitors who see it for the first time may find themselves slack-jawed with amazement.
The wide-open blooms makes them larger, crowded along sturdy 4- to 4½-inch stalks atop the foliage. Chantilly is among the tallest Snaps, reaching 36 to 40 inches high in bloom and spreading 12 to 18 inches wide. The blooms cluster tightly in spring and fall (and often through summer in cool climates), excellent for cutting and spectacular in a large garden planting. Let them lean against a sturdy, shorter plant in the garden or give them some support for their enormous bounty of blooms!
Long-lasting in the vase, Chantilly is an all-around superb performer. You will love its vigorous growth, thrill to its beautiful yawning blooms, and enjoy its staying power after others have given up. Do try it this season in the sunny garden -- you'll be glad you did! Packet is 25 seeds.
This showy annual is useful tucked into borders and when planted in mass as a bedding plant. The flowers cut well for fresh use. It grows 1/2 -3 feet tall by 1/2- 2 feet wide and in cool climates it flowers from summer to fall; in Zones 7 and warmer, expect a display only in the spring. Flowers are 1-2 inch, two-lipped curiosities that resemble what can best be imagined as a “dragon’s jaw.” They come in a wide range of colors (excluding blue and green) and are either solid or bicolored

Park Seed has been handling and packing vegetable and flower seeds for 145 years, a history that has given us a great understanding of how each variety should be cared for and maintained throughout every step of theprocess, from collection to shipping.
When packing our seeds, the majority are actually done by hand (with extreme care!), and we often over-pack them, so you're receiving more than the stated quantity.
The Park Seed Gold Standard
Heirloom Seeds are open-pollinated -- they are not hybrids. You can gather and save heirloom seed from year to year and they will grow true to type every year, so they can be passed down through generations. To be considered an heirloom, a variety would have to be at least from the 1940's and 3 generations old (many varieties are much older -- some 100 years or more!).
Hybrid seed are the product of cross-pollination between 2 different parent plants, resulting in a new plant/seed that is different from the parents. Unlike Heirloom seed, hybrid seed need to be re-purchased new every year (and not saved). They usually will not grow true to type if you save them, but will revert to one of the parents they were crossed with and most likely look/taste different in some way.
