Description
- Another hit from the West Country range, with vibrant ruby red petals lightly flecked with yellow
- Blooms from May to June
- An easy care hardy perennial which loves a sunny, sheltered spot
- Adds height and colour to a mixed border as an accent plant or in groups. These sturdy lupins are also perfect for containers and can be grown for cutting
- Grows up to 90cm tall
- Pollen rich and loved by bees and butterflies
- Causes discomfort if eaten – wear gloves and wash hands after gardening
- West Country lupins are bred in Devon by Sarah Colibear for colour, improved disease resistance and vigour. They’re a regular feature of the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, with four gold medal wins. These lupins produce more flower spikes than traditional lupins and last longer too. Their stronger stems mean that they don’t need any staking
