What to do with lupin seeds

Avoid planting them in containers as they grow weakly and can be susceptible to aphid attacks – they grow much better in the ground.

Although a traditional cottage garden plant, lupins can be planted in more contemporary planting schemes.

Try growing them in large drifts among ornamental grasses, for an unusual effect.

Dig a planting hole in a well-drained soil. Plant and firm in place.

Water and provide a plant support if planting in summer. Young plants tend to establish better in the garden than larger, more mature specimens.
