Lupine – Russell Blue/Purple

Growing in upright stalks of vivid blue, Russell Lupine makes a nice background for a planted flower arrangement. The 3 foot tall spikes, which contain the flowers, bloom from late spring to early summer. This flower is native to eastern North America and enjoys full to partial sun with well-drained soils. For the best results, plant Russell Lupine directly outdoors, rather than trying to transplant.
