Close-up of the flower of a snapdragon (Antirrhinum sp.) opening and closing. The snapdragon flower is usually pollinated by bumble bees, which climb inside the flower, between the two halves seen here. Smaller insects are unable to do this, although some may tunnel through the side of the flower to reach the nectar. The common name snapdragon arises as the flower also opens when its sides are squeezed. | |
