Lupin 'The Pages'

Lupinus 'The Pages' impresses with bold, vivid red flower spikes that rise well above the decorative palmate foliage in early summer. Its upright habit creates strong vertical structure in sunny perennial borders and cottage gardens. This hardy lupine brings intense colour to the garden while its nectar-rich flowers provide an excellent food source for bees and bumblebees.

Care/Water

Lupinus 'The Pages' requires regular watering during the growing season, especially during hot summer days. The soil should be well-drained, moist, and nutrient-rich to promote strong flowers and healthy foliage. Water at the base and avoid wetting the leaves to prevent fungal diseases. Consistent moisture supports lush flowering and healthy plants.

Maintenance

Regularly remove faded flowers to encourage new blooms. After flowering, old flower spikes can be removed to support the next bloom. Organic fertilizer promotes strong flowers and healthy foliage. Check the plant regularly for pests.

Location

Lupinus 'The Pages' grows best in sunny locations with well-drained, moist soil. Avoid waterlogging to prevent root damage. Open, airy spots promote strong plants and a long flowering period.

Tip

Lightly mulch around the base to retain moisture and support root development. This extends the flowering period and promotes strong, healthy plants.

Lupinus 'The Pages' features strong foliage and striking flower spikes in vibrant colors, prominently accenting beds and borders. The foliage supports the flowers and promotes plant vitality.
