Lupins
Lupinus Chandelier
Majestic spikes of slightly fragrant, cheerful, sweet pea shaped blooms in varying shades of yellow from bright lemon to rich butter all in the same spike. This is a traditional, tall, cottage garden perennial with an uplifting image and handsome, dark blue-green leaves attractively divided into many finger-like leaflets. Growing in any reasonably well-drained, sunny position, it normally blooms the first year after planting, adding valuable colour and accent to the garden. The flowers have an intense, glowing appearance which is set off beautifully by the backdrop of dark foliage

Garden Care:
Incorporate lots of well-rotted organic matter into the backfill when planting. Apply generous well rotted organic mulch in early spring and keep well-watered during periods of dry weather.Please Note: Many perennials go ‘dormant’ which, in some cases, means that there is little or no top growth apparent between November and March. If you order perennials whilst they are dormant, they may not be visible above the soil level when purchased but will burst into life in spring. In the dormant period, we may not have stocks of all varieties in all pot sizes and therefore reserve the right to supply 9cm pots instead of 1 or 2 litre plants and adjust the price down accordingly
