Care Guide

Cultivation

Grow in moderately fertile, light and well-drained soil in full sun or light, dappled shade

Pruning

Deadhead to encourage a second flush of flowers. As lupins can be short-lived for perennials, some may be left to seed as replacements, though plants grown from seed may be variable

Propagation

Propagate from basal softwood cuttings in mid spring. As this plant is protected by Plant Breeders' Rights, any propagation should be for personal rather than commercial use

Pests

May be susceptible to lupin aphid, slugs and snails

Diseases

May be susceptible to powdery mildews, lupin anthracnose and virus diseases, and to fungal and bacterial rot particularly in damp conditions
