Description

'Noble Maiden' is an upright, bushy perennial with palmate-shaped, deep green leaves. Erect stems bear densely packed spikes of creamy white flowers from early to midsummer.
Lupins can be grown in coastal locations as they are tolerant to salt spray. When planting this classic cottage garden perennial in your flower borders and beds choose a sunny location that has a fertile, humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil - a neutral to slightly acidic pH is preferred. Deadhead the flower spikes as they fade and you may well get a second flush of flower.
Available for Mail Order from April - August
Lupins are harmful if consumed.
