Moroccan Toadflax
A magical play of colour from red to violet via yellow to white with ornamental, multi-coloured snapdragon-like flowers for rockeries, corners of beds and among shrubs. The Moroccan Toadflax likes dry situations in full sun or half shade. Sow thinly and shallowly in final position from April to July. Toadflax grow quickly and is relatively slug resistant.
