Antirrhinum braun-blanquetii Rothm.
Description:
Native to the northern Iberian Peninsula, particularly north-western Spain and north-eastern Portugal, this perennial snapdragon grows naturally in rocky slopes, alpine steppe, and crevices where drainage is excellent. It forms bushy clumps of leafy stems topped with spikes of pale yellow to creamy-white flowers with deep yellow throats, sometimes marked with violet or pink tones. Adapted to sunny, dry conditions, it is drought tolerant and attractive to bumblebees.
