One of the last, at any rate:
“Last Snap”
We’ve had a few hard freezes, frost, and snow already; I photographed this pink snapdragon the day before the hard freeze. It’s rather a shame, isn’t it, that this cottage garden favourite was subjected to something so cruel as a freeze and frost so early in the season, but the so-called experts have been predicting a difficult winter (we shall see—obviously, I don’t put much trust in them).
Snapdragons are absolutely one of my favourite blooms—common, yes, but prolific, a 
favourite of the bees, and they spread readily without ever daring to dominate the beds. In other words, the perfect little groundcover! I didn’t even plant this salmon-blush beauty; it just popped up beside the deck stair all on its own, accompanied by violets and magenta snaps on the other side of the stair. I look forward to seeing them back next year—We’ve only been in this house a few ticks over two years, but what began life last summer, our first here, as a little winter-sown snapdragon seedling is now a patch of them about two feet by two feet wide!
Well, enough blathering. I shall miss these little dragons now that cold weather is here—but look forward to their return next summer.
But they will be back, perhaps I will plant them in my garden this year.
You should—they’re easy to grow, and so cheerful!
