Lupine Pollinator Garden Seed (Lupinus perennis)
Lupine is a 1’ to 2’ tall native perennial nitrogen fixing legume. It flowers in the summer and features long dense clusters of showy bright blue pea-like flowers. The plant prefers dry sandy soils but will tolerate moist soils. It grows well in full sun or part shade. This plant is very adaptable and will do well in a number of garden settings. Lupine is browsed by deer and birds, and small mammals eat the seed. The plant is especially attractive to butterflies and hummingbirds.
