Featured plant: toadflax, blue, baby snapdragon

Toadflax, baby snapdragon (Linaria sp.) Perennial. Zones 5-10. This is a tall growing plant, about 3'. It bears spikes of  lavender blue flowers in early to mid summer. The flowers look like little snapdragons. The picture shows them in full bloom, they are leaning out over the sidewalk. These are growing in part sun but I believe they prefer full sun. They like regular water. Well drained, fertile soil is best.
