Antirrhinum barrelieri is a perennial subshrub in the snapdragon genus, native to northeastern Spain, with pink or purplish tubular flowers. It favours warm, sunny, well-drained conditions similar to its subtropical native habitat.
Antirrhinum barrelieri is a species of perennial flowering plant in the genus Antirrhinum (common snapdragons) in the family Plantaginaceae. Native to northeastern Spain, the species is a subshrub that favors subtropical conditions. A. barrelieri produce stems of between 30 cm (12 in) and 75 cm (30 in) tall, on which narrow leaves and 8 to 20 pink or purplish tubular flowers grow. Flowering and fruiting generally occurs between March and September within the species's native range.
In 1855, the botanist Alexandre Boreau was the first to describe the species with its current name, which Boreau gave the species in honor of the 17th-century biologist Jacques Barrelier. A. barrelieri has been reassigned or synonymized to other Antirrhinum, though genetic evidence has supported its placement as a discrete species. After 1896 descriptions by the botanist Carlos Pau y Español, the name A.
Antirrhinum barrelieri is found within a native range that includes the northeastern portions of Spain. It favors a subtropical climate and features the morphological adaptions characteristic of grassland species in the Antirrhinum subsection of the genus. Its preferred elevations within its native range span from sea level up to 1,500 m (4,900 ft).
