Lupinus 'Terracotta'
Come late spring, a group of rusty red-orange Lupinus 'Terracotta' planted together will erupt to form a forest of sunset hues. Along with alliums and oriental poppies, lupins play a crucial role in bridging the gap between spring and summer. Their emerging foliage masks the dying leaves of daffodils, and in their blooms fade to make way for the first flush of summer perennials. 'Terracotta' lupines are truly invaluable members of the garden!
Lupin 'Terracotta' is best given a sunny spot, in well-draining soil. Resist the urge to add manure or compost to the planting hole, as Lupins do best where nutrients are scarce. Give them too much goodness, and they’re all leaf no flower! Cut back flower stems as soon as they fade. As well as looking nice and neat, this also stops the lupin plant from wasting energy on seed production, which can wear it out to the point of shortening its life span.
