Originally from North America. It grows up to 130 cm tall and has a strong taproot underground. The leaves are palmately divided with 9 to 15 lanceolate leaflets. The flower spike can be up to 50 centimeters long. Plants begin flowering after mid-June. Cultivated lupine varieties have a diverse range of pastel colors: white, pink, yellow, salmon, red, blue, and purple for single-color cultivars, many with individual flowers combined with white.
A group of colorful lupines is hard to miss. They look beautiful in loose groups and on mixed borders, where they combine well with lower, later-flowering perennials. They pair excellently with autumn irises and columbine. They are suitable for cutting.
