Organic Lupine «Purple Candle»
Bring beauty and interest to a natural setting by sowing Lupine wild flower seeds. These flowers stand up in clusters of spikes with sweet pea-shaped blooms.
These well-known perennials are legumes and can add nitrogen to the soil. While this flowering plant is highly prominent in North America, species of Lupine grow throughout the world on nearly every continent. Wild Lupine quickly take root and do best in drier soils with high acidity, sand content and drainage.
How to Grow
Lupines need neutral to slightly acidic soil, although they can grow in very acidic soil conditions. Lupines don’t need rich loam, but it’s important to grow the plants in very well-draining soil to avoid root rot. Sandy soil conditions and poor rocky soil promote the growth of the lupine’s deep tap root.
Starting lupines from seed is an economical way to get a showy flower garden the following season. The seed coat is tough, and seeds have a better germination rate if you nick the seed coat or soak them in water overnight. Plant them about ¼ inch deep outdoors in a permanent area that receives full sun, as they do not transplant well.
Expect germination in 14-30 days.
