Nursery contributed plant descriptions

I love Linaria... they were one of the first genera I had success with as a kid. The little flowers are like tiny, delicate, profuse versions of snapdragons, and in this strain come in every combination of yellow, purple, red, white, and orange. Blooms basically non-stop all summer. Hardy perennials. Not particularly long lived, but happy to self-sow. Zone 5
