Discover the plant
‘Gallery’ Mix Lupine (Lupinus polyphyllus) is a compact zone-3 perennial producing upright spikes in dark blue, red, pink, yellow, and white. Plants reach approximately 50 to 60 cm tall and spread 30 to 40 cm. They suit borders, perennial beds, and cut-flower arrangements. W.H. Perron packet 63-2140-010 contains approximately 30 bare seeds. The main bloom occurs in June and July; removing spent spikes may support repeat flowering in autumn while limiting volunteer seedlings. The mixture provides clear blocks of colour on compact plants rather than one uniform flower shade.
Sow indoors approximately six weeks before planting or direct sow outdoors after the last frost. Maintain seedlings at 15–20°C in porous, well-drained mix; germination takes approximately 14 to 21 days. W.H. Perron also recommends 8 to 10 weeks of vernalization below 7°C to increase head count and uniformity. Handle roots carefully and transplant into rich, organic, slightly acidic, well-drained soil. Keep soil consistently moist without saturation because lupines do not tolerate complete drying during active growth. Label colours only after flowering because individual seed colour does not predict the eventual bloom.
Place ‘Gallery’ in full sun or light shade, preferably in a cool climate and away from extreme summer heat. Apply mulch to keep roots cool in summer and protect them over winter. Cut faded spikes after the main bloom; this extends interest, prevents potentially invasive self-sowing, and limits premature plant exhaustion. Like other legumes, lupine contributes to nitrogen fixation but does not require rich feeding. Plants often decline after three to four years. All parts, especially seeds, are toxic if ingested, so keep plants and cut material away from children and pets and never use flowers as food decorations.
