LUPINUS PLUMMY-BLUE (Leguminosae) HP

An attractive hybrid produced here by crossing a blue tree lupin (with pale blue and white flowers), with a red Russell lupin. We were pleasantly surprised to discover a shrub carrying plump spikes of creamy pink buds which opened into bicolored blue and plum flowers. Seedlings will vary. May be trained into a standard shrub. Prune top growth back hard each spring.
