Wild Perennial Lupine, scientifically known as Lupinus perennis, is a charming perennial flowering plant native to North America, particularly thriving in the eastern regions of the continent. This plant is renowned for its vibrant, pea-like flowers that typically blossom in shades of violet-blue. These colorful clusters not only add a splash of color to gardens but also contribute to a lush, naturalistic landscape, making them popular for both wildflower gardens and more structured perennial borders.


One of the significant advantages of incorporating Wild Perennial Lupine into garden landscapes is its role as a pollinator magnet. The plant's flowers are highly attractive to a variety of pollinators, including bees, butterflies, and even some species of birds, thereby supporting local ecosystems. Given its perennial nature, it returns year after year, providing consistent beauty and ecological benefits. However, gardeners should note that Lupinus perennis requires ample watering, especially during its establishment phase and in periods of drought, to maintain its vigor and floral display. This water requirement should be considered when planning its placement within water-conservation or xeriscaped gardens.

ADDITIONAL SOWING INFORMATION

GROWERS TIP
Stratify the seeds by placing them in a moist towel in the fridge for 4 weeks. This will help break dormancy in the seed. After following this practice, scarify or nick the seed with sandpaper to break down its hard outer shell. Sow indoors in biodegradable CowPots, 6 to 8 weeks prior to the last frost. Transplant or direct sow when temperatures reach at least 65°F. Water heavily on hot days or the plants can wilt quickly. Lupines can replenish nitrogen in the soil.
