Gardeners have
trusted this old time favorite for decades. Russell Hybrid Lupines are a mix of
majestic, vibrant colors that bring the garden to life in late spring and early summer.
The colorful spires of blue, purple, red, white and pink tower above bushy mats of bright
green foliage. Flowers open from the bottom up making for a longer blooming period.
Russell Hybrid mix is a butterfly magnet and is a great vertical accent for the
garden. Very popular!
Lupine 'Russell Hybrid mix'
Plant in full sun and provide a rich well drained soil. Fertilize in early
spring with a top dressing of compost and bone meal. Lupines like their roots to
remain cool - apply a 3 - 4 inch layer of mulch around the plants to help protect their
roots from summers heat.
