These beauties are one of the very first flowers to pop on our farm, bringing those tall, bold spikes of color we all crave after winter. They come in a gorgeous mix of blues, violets, and deep purples that look just as good in a cottage garden as they do in a fresh bouquet. Lupin is easy to grow, great for the bees, and perfect for adding some height to your flower beds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePlant type:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003ePerennial\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDays to Germination:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e14-28 days\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHeight: \u003c\/b\u003e24-40” \u003cspan\u003e(75cm - 1m)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003ePlanting depth: \u003c\/b\u003e1\/4\" (6mm)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003eExposure:\u003c\/b\u003e full sun\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003ePlant spacing: \u003c\/b\u003e18-24” (45cm - 60cm)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003eApprox. seeds per packet:\u003c\/b\u003e 25\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness Zone: 3-8\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e80-100 days to maturity\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow to sow:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePrepare seeds first by scarifying (nick or soak) to help them sprout.
