Description Packet Details
 
There is little to rival a mass planting of lupins with their tall spikes glowing with colour in May and June. Height 90-110 cm.

WHEN TO SOW
April to June. Soak seed overnight 12 - 15 hours before sowing

WHERE TO SOW
Early sowings into pots or trays in a cold frame or from April in a seed bed 1cm deep. We would suggest that when watering the seed you use a soluble Fungicide such as Chestnut Compound (Product Code Number 45159) to prevent damping off, which can cause thde plant to wilt and die back.

WHAT TO DO NEXT
Tray sown seedlings should be pricked off, as soon as large enough to handle, into a nursery bed 15cm apart. Transplant to flowering site 30-45cm apart in October.

MATURITY
May to July the following year.

HANDY TIP
Lupins are tolerant of most soils and are at their best planted in groups of 5 or 6 plants.
