Notes
'Desert Sun' lupine (Lupinus 'Desert Sun') is a garden plant with clear yellow and creamy white flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun. It blooms from early to late summer, and bees visit the flowers. Lupines go semi-dormant after blooming. Cut the plant back six inches after flowering to encourage new growth and reblooming.
Pairs well with Coral Sunset peony, Cheerfulness daffodil, Sedge, and Charles Joly lilac.
