    Gill, I like the bottom left one a lot, too.
    Babysitter, snapdragons have a bumpy, bubbly, bloomy look that I love.
    Quietpaths, I didn’t get to know them until an adult, but now, they are one of my top favorites.

    Beautiful colors in your snapdragons; nice photos.

  8. Snapdragons are one of my favourite garden plants. Nothing seems to faze them and even with snow on the ground, they are still green and blooming in my garden. I really like the colour of these ones!

    Snapdragons
    are one of my favourite flowers in the garden. After the first frost and snow flurries, we still have some snapdragons in the garden.
    Very pretty pictures.

    I’ve always liked snapdragons, especially since as a kid my mom showed me how to lightly squeeze them to make them talk. :-D

  23. hihorosie says:

    My dad would grow snap dragons I remember growing up and I used to love playing with them by pinching their cheeks! Snap!

  24. Louise says:

    OH MY, the COLORS of these things! I love how they have a hint of yellow or orange–some warm color–to offset the cool pink! Beautiful!

  25. Leora says:

    Louise, OK, you’ve convinced me to upload one of these to my Facebook account. And then I’ll go for a walk, and stop reading political posts over which I have no control (voted has been completed earlier).
