Random question & some happy news (for me)

Random question:
Are Snapdragons a type of Orchid?

Happy news:
Just purchased my 3rd Phal today!
Nothing special- a noid and on sale for 4$ (it's a mini) Leaves look great, but I know the roots need some love. Has some new root growth so there is hope. :P
It was an impulse buy. My husband actually said "you should get that one" and who am I to argue with him?

Snapdragons (Antirrhinum) belong to the family Plantaginaceae, the plantain family. (formerly, treated within the family Scrophulariaceae, but studies of DNA sequences have led to its inclusion in a vastly enlarged family Plantaginaceae)

Well, he did just have a glass of wine before we headed out (I drove :P)

But I don't know. The place we went is a garden center (not at lowes or Home Depot or anything) and its very pretty just to walk around and the weather was beautiful. I guess he was just in a good mood.
I was surprised too. Haha

Then is no way I will hear my husband say that, he does not drink! May be if I give him Chocolate before going into the garden center??

My husband only drinks occassionally and only one glass. That's enough for him to feel a bit more generous. Haha
Chocolate might do the trick, you never know.
It helped that the plant still had some blooms and it was only $4.
