Lupinus polyphyllus

Lupin

The lupin is a striking perennial with tall, candle-shaped flower spikes in spectacular colours. From June to July, this plant adorns the garden with blue, pink, purple, or white flower spires. The palmate leaves form a decorative foliage canopy. As a legume, the lupin enriches the soil with nitrogen.
