Lupinus 'Masterpiece' (Westcountry Series)
- Good for Cutting
- Loved by Garden Birds
- Loved by Pollinators
- Scented
Lupins’ architectural flower spikes and their degree of colour saturation would be enough reason to grow them at any time of the year, but the fact that they flower reliably in the May/June gap, carrying the colour baton from the last of the tulips to the main flood of summer perennials, should shoot them straight up any priority list
On occasion we may need to send you an alternative variety to the one shown, which will be selected by our growing team to ensure its suitability. It will be of equal or greater value to the original. Please contact our customer service team if there are any problems.
