What makes this plant different
Antirrhinum Multiflorum is confirmed non-toxic to dogs and cats by the ASPCA. It's the wild, multi-flowered form of Snapdragon — the dried seed pods of this genus famously split open into a shape resembling a tiny skull, which has made them a popular (if slightly morbid) garden curiosity for kids.
