Definition
A plant also known as snapdragon (Antirrhinum); called this because the seed pods supposedly resemble a dog's mouth or snout.
Etymology
From dog + mouth (Old English 'opening for eating'). The plant name reflects the visual resemblance of its distinctive seed pod shape to a canine's mouth, typical of folk plant naming.
Kelly Says
Snapdragons got the name 'dogmouth' because the seed pods pop open like a dog's jaw snapping—and gardeners have pressed this feature into children's play for centuries!
