Lupine, Blue & White (1/4 lb)

Pretty California Wildflower

L. nanus (Annual) is a California native lupine that produces rich blue-and-white flower spikes atop 8–15 slender stems. Blooming from spring to early summer, it thrives in full sun and a range of soil types. Especially effective on banks for erosion control, this variety self-sows readily in areas with minimal competition. Pair it with California poppies for a striking seasonal display.

Growing 12–24" tall, Blue & White Lupine enriches soil as a nitrogen-fixing legume while attracting pollinators and supporting ecological diversity. Its low-maintenance nature and drought tolerance make it a smart choice for wildflower meadows, garden edges, or water-wise landscapes.

For best results, sow seeds directly outdoors in fall to give seedlings a head start, or in spring for blooms later in the season. Plant in well-drained soil, avoid high-nitrogen amendments, and allow some seed heads to mature if you wish to encourage natural reseeding.
