Lupinus ‘Camelot Blue’
Hybrid Lupine |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.330.550
The tall spires of Lupines are an unforgettable sight in the early summer border. Plants grow best in a deep, rich soil, slightly on the acidic side. This compact selection is versatile for small spaces and produces intense blue and white bicoloured flowers. Deadhead faded blooms regularly to encourage a second blooming period in the fall. As these are short-lived perennials, allow some plants to set seed. CAUTION: Harmful if eaten.
