I love them, but they do not like my soil.

some of mine have not survived this last winter but these are a little bit further up the garden and maybe get more light than the big border does.

I cannot keep lupins - they always end up being eaten ?. But I DO love them!

I have always loved them Melchie from being a little girl. Those and foxgloves.

Yes - so many of our favourites have roots in childhood ...

Good! Its Masterpiece I want...but £8 for a lupin? Really? Its a lupin not a shrub!

that's what made me so cross when they procrastinated over the yellow ones, they knew they were poor when they sent them out but wanted top notch money for them. I liked Masterpiece too, wonder if we shall be able to buy some seeds, might be worth a Google that.

Tried that...no luck. Apparently Lupins dont come true from seed (makes sense) so could try a mixed pack and hope for some nice ones, but I'm not keen on any other bi-coloured ones, so not really worth it. Will have to wait until i find them at a good price. The lady at my local GC reckons the best place to see lupins is McDonalds car park in Dundee! They get everywhere!
