Lupine Russell Seeds Mix

Lupine Russell Seeds Mix produces tall, elegant flower spikes in a wide range of vibrant colors, making it a standout addition to cottage gardens, pollinator plantings, and mixed borders. These stately perennials thrive in full sun and well-draining soil, developing lush mounds of palmate foliage before sending up dramatic towers of blooms in late spring to early summer. The Russell strain is known for its uniformity, vigorous growth, and rich color selection, attracting bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds throughout the flowering season. Gardeners appreciate how these lupines add vertical interest, texture, and bold color to garden designs while improving soil health through nitrogen fixation. They perform best in cool climates and benefit from mulching and regular moisture during early growth.
