Russell Lupines are a beloved perennial flower known for their tall, vibrant spires of blooms in a rainbow of colors, from deep purples and blues to soft pinks, yellows, and creams. Developed in the early 20th century by George Russell in England, this improved strain of lupine is prized for its larger flower spikes, longer bloom time, and rich, saturated colors. Hardy and adaptable, Russell Lupines thrive in cooler climates and make a stunning statement in cottage gardens, borders, and wildflower meadows. If you are a hot climate gardener - sow seeds indoors to get a head start and transplant starting in fall to grow through fall, winter, and early spring. Their lush, palm-shaped foliage and dramatic floral towers attract pollinators like bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, while also making excellent cut flowers. Perfect for adding height, color, and texture to your garden, these easy-to-grow plants will return year after year once established.
PLANTING
Germination: 14-21 days
Seed Sowing Depth: 1/4 inch
Sowing Directions: Seeds sprout in 14–21 days at 65–75°F. For better germination, soak overnight or gently nick the seed coat before planting. Sow the seeds 4–8 weeks before your last spring frost date. If you are a hot climate gardener - sow seeds indoors in midsummer to grow transplants that will be ready to plant in fall. Lupine has a deep taproot and does not like to have its roots disturbed so sow the seeds in deep containers like a solo cup with drainage holes cut out of the bottom. Sow the seeds 1/4 inch deep. Thin to one plant per cell when the first true leaves appear.
Orders are shipped in 1-3 business days excluding holidays or delays due to natural disasters like hurricanes.
Seeds are shipped in bubble mailers so they will not be pushed through USPS roller machines which can damage the seeds. I will not ship seeds in an envelope for this reason.
Seeds will be shipped with no planting instructions to keep seed costs low to the buyer. Germination and plant care information is included in the description. I encourage each gardener to research specifics on how to be successful growing them. I also have lots of information on my TikTok, Instagram and YouTube channel all under the account name jerrasgarden. I started this shop to share my love of certain seed varieties and spread the knowledge of gardening. Please contact me if you can't find information or have additional questions.
Orders with live plants are packed on Mondays and Thursdays (excluding holidays or delays because of natural disasters. Plants are shipped in boxes with packaging material to protect them while they are in transit.
No returns or refunds once shipped. I am not responsible for lost or damaged packages caused by USPS. Since there are so many factors that affect germination and growing success, no refunds or exchanges are allowed once seeds have shipped. These are the same seeds I use in my personal garden so I can attest to their viability. Seeds are fresh season to season.
