Comment |
Bushy erect form. Soak seed for 24 hours before sowing in seedbed in spring. Will self-seed. "Bushy annual. Leaves are medium green, large and 7 to 11 palmate, with obovate-oblong shaped leaflets to 2 1/2 inches long. Grown for their brilliant display of golden yellow, sweet pea shaped flowers on tall spikes in spring and early summer. Wonderful cottage garden additions, eye-catching when planted in large masses. Other than requiring good drainage, not fussy about soil. Can start from seed in winter or early spring." from Backyard Gardener. 11 varieties of Lupinus are available as seed from Plant World Seeds including 2 yellows as Lupinus arboreus and Lupinus luteus. |
