snapdragons
Mouth-shaped garden flowers
Snapdragons are flowering plants with colorful tubular blooms that open and close like a mouth when squeezed—hence the name.
They're garden staples, growing in spikes of pink, red, yellow, white, or orange flowers.
Children often pinch the blossoms to make them "talk." The snapdragons along the fence bloomed all summer.
