Lupin Towering Inferno
West Country Lupins have an excellent
selection of Lupin plants availible from us or
through their website
Lupins grow best on well drained soil that is
not too rich.
They prefer acid soil, if you have weak lupins
or yellow leaves this may be caused by too
much lime, apply sequestrine or an acid loving
treatment.
Plant lupins out when the plants are young,
this means that they can put down a good root
system. They grow best in an open position
away from trees. After the flowers have faded
remove them and don't let the plant produce
lots of seeds, this helps to keep the energy in
the parent plant and prevents self seeding.
Don't cut the plants back hard after flowering,
they can take months to recover.
Lupins can be divided in the spring, DO NOT
divide in the autumn as this will kill the plants.
