Wholesale Antirrhinums, commonly known as Snapdragons, are tall, elegant cut flowers with rows of flowers along an upright stem. They are popular for adding height, colour and a cottage-garden feel to floral arrangements. 

Antirrhinums are especially useful and loved for wedding flowers, sympathy flowers, pedestal arrangements and large vase compositions. Their vertical shape helps create structure and movement. 

A traditional cottage garden flower with trumpet-shaped flowers on tall spikes. A great favourite with children who like to 'pop' the flowers open.

Other Information about Wholesale Antirrhinum 

• When to order? We recommend delivery 2-3 days before the event to allow time to condition and hydrate before use. The flowers from Dutch Auctions are sourced partially mature. 
• Antirrhinums are phototropic, so they will bend towards the light. Make sure to keep upright while conditioning to avoid the curved stems. 
• Handle carefully, as individual blooms can bruise 
• Best used for height, garden style, vertical lines and soft colour
• Avoid storage in the dark, as this may bleach out the colour 
• Sensitive to ethylene gas 
• Remove flower heads as they die. This will encourage upper buds to open and develop. 
• Arrange with round-headed summer flowers such as Ammi Majus, Roses, Peonies and Scabious.
