Wild Lupine
Wild Lupine, lupinus perennis, is a Native Canadian wildflower that prefers lightly shaded conditions, and loose sandy soil.
In late spring, Wild Lupine produces lovely blue-purple flowers that will attract Karner Blue Butterflies.
This native perennial Lupine is an excellent choice for the gardener who doesn't have much time for fertilizing or watering, as it is naturally adapted to the conditions in our climate.
Note: Like many perennials, this plant may not bloom in the first year.
Pro Tip: Germination can be slow, and both seed soaking and seed scarification are recommended. Soak seeds overnight before planting.

A Water-Saving Choice
This plant is drought tolerant, meaning it doesn't need to be watered often once it's established. This is great for busy gardeners, forgetful gardeners, or gardeners looking to reduce the amount of fresh water used in their garden.
