These flowers have erect stems with fine, threadlike, blue-green leaves, and the flowers are similar to those of the Snapdragon. They are long and pale yellow, except for the lower tip which is orange. They are borne in dense terminal racemes, that will bloom from late Spring to mid-Fall. It is native to Europe and southwestern Asia. It is important to note that the roots of a single plant can extend to 10 feet and give rise to other plants every few inches, making it hard to eradicate.
