Guía de cuidados

Plant in full sun in slightly acidic to neutral, well-drained soil. Lupins dislike chalky or heavy clay ground. Water regularly but avoid waterlogging. Support tall flower stems with plant stakes in windy locations.

Consejos de poda

Remove spent flower stems immediately after blooming to encourage a second flush. Cut the plant back to ground level in autumn. Divide plants every three to four years in spring to keep them vigorous.
