With a fruity fragrance, akin to a bowl of fresh cherries, these open-faced, large, double blooms are sure to draw your attention when they flower from June to September. Perfect as a cut flower as well as happy in containers or open ground, Antirrhinum majus ‘DoubleShot™ Orange Bicolor’ is a warm and wonderous deep shade of orange, with red undertones. These vivid colours shift to duskier colour as blooms mature and frilly flowers have delicate white throats for further interest. Stems reach a height of around 50cm and plants spread out to around 40cm for generous impact in containers and borders. Plant Antirrhinum majus ‘DoubleShot™ Orange Bicolor’ in rich, well-drained soil of any type except clay and ensure that plants benefit from a position in either full sun or partial shade. As a half-hardy annual your plant will die back once the cold weather arrives. However, seed can be collected in late summer or early autumn for propagation the following spring – assuring you of continued supplies.
