Yellow Lupines for a Bright Garden Display

Add upright flower spikes and sunny yellow color to your garden with yellow lupine seeds. Their distinctive blooms bring height and contrast to mixed borders and cottage-style plantings, and make an eye-catching addition to cut-flower arrangements.

Starting Your Seeds

Lupine seeds have hard seed coats. Soaking before sowing can help water reach the seed. Sow in a well-draining seed-starting mix and keep it evenly moist without saturating it. Use individual deep pots when starting indoors, and transplant young plants carefully to minimize root disturbance.

Gradually acclimate indoor-grown seedlings to outdoor conditions before planting out. Germination and flowering vary with the variety, sowing date, temperature, and growing conditions.

Growing Care

• Water young plants regularly while roots establish.
• Maintain good drainage and avoid letting pots stand in water.
• Allow space around each plant for growth and airflow.
• Remove faded flower spikes for a tidy display and to limit unwanted self-seeding.

Cut Flowers

Cut flower spikes when the lower blossoms begin opening. Place stems promptly in clean water and remove any foliage that would sit below the waterline.

Ornamental Use Only

Do not eat these seeds or plants. Ornamental lupines can be toxic if ingested. Keep seeds and plants away from children and pets.
