Antirrhinum majus, known in English as "snapdragon" and in French as gueule de loup or muflier, is a tender perennial (grown as an annual in Toronto gardens) native to the Mediterranean. Snapdragons have spikes of showy flowers in a wide variety of colorus; each flower looks a bit like a dragon's (or wolf's) head, with "jaws" that can be made to open by gently squeezing the sides of the flower. The 'Montego' series are dwarf cultivars, only 25-30 cm tall.
