Snapdragon flowers are so pretty and interesting. Snapdragons are so beautiful with their blooms. The petals look like a dragon’s mouth that opens and closes when gently squeezed. The colors come in pink, white, yellow, red, orange, or lavender. They look like a bunch of colorful mouths that are ready to chatter. Snapdragon plants also have tiny lobes at the base of the plant. These lobes are shaped like the fingers of a child’s hand, but they’re also like the toes of a kid’s foot. The flowers are so interesting. The most striking thing is how the petals turn, and the flowers bend, when you gently push the tiny “mouths” together. The movement of the flowers looks like the animated mouths of a dragon.
