Features

notes

The giant, coral coloured spires of Lupin Salmon Star add a bold and impressive statement to the cottage garden border. The pea-like blooms are beloved by bees and make a beautiful cut flower. The mid-green leaves are palmate, as is the way of lupins.

Insights

Great for the middle or back of a garden border, where it can form clumps, or plant it up in pots on the terrace.
