Common Toadflax, Yellow Toadflax, Butter-And-Eggs
With its bright orange-yellow flowers, the Common Toadflax (Linaria vulgaris) might be one of the most beautiful European perennials. It grows perennially, flowers from late summer to fall and can grow up to 60 centimetres high. It spreads by seeds and short runners.
Distribution area
The natural distribution area is Asia (China, Russia, Turkey) and Europe (northern Europe, central Europe, southern Europe). As an ornamental plant, the Common Toadflax also reached some North American regions, where it became native.
Habitats
Linaria vulgaris is found along roadsides, in dry meadows, on railway embankments, embankments, sand dunes and in quarries. It thrives best in sunny locations and does well in dry places because its roots grow deep into the ground.
