Prepare Soil: Use well-draining soil rich in organic matter. Lupines prefer slightly acidic to neutral soil (pH 5.5-6.5). Loosen the soil to a depth of 12-18 inches and remove any rocks or debris. 2. Scarify Seeds: Lupine seeds have a hard outer shell. To improve germination, scarify the seeds by gently nicking them with a knife or rubbing them with sandpaper. Soak the seeds in water for 12-24 hours before planting. 3. Direct Sowing: Lupines do best when sown directly in the garden. Plant seeds 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep in the soil. Space seeds 12-18 inches apart. 4. Provide Sunlight: Lupines thrive in full sun to light shade. Choose a location that receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. 5. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist during the germination period. Once established, lupines are relatively drought-tolerant but perform best with regular watering. 6. Fertilize Sparingly: Lupines do not require much fertilization. If necessary, apply a balanced, low-nitrogen fertilizer in early spring. Follow package instructions for dosage. 7. Provide Support (Optional): Tall lupine varieties may require staking to prevent them from falling over, especially in windy areas. 8. Deadhead (Optional): Remove spent flower spikes (deadheading) to encourage additional blooms and prevent self-seeding. 9. Pest and Disease Control: Monitor your lupines for pests like aphids and diseases such as powdery mildew. Use organic pest control methods if necessary. 10. Mulch: Apply a layer of mulch around the base of the plants to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds. Leave space around the stems to prevent rotting. 11. Overwintering: In colder climates, protect lupines with a layer of mulch in late fall. This helps insulate the roots during the winter months. Note: Lupines are beloved for their tall, colorful flower spikes and ability to attract pollinators like bees and butterflies. They also enrich the soil by fixing nitrogen, making them an excellent choice for garden beds and borders! --- Shipping Notice: To sustain our competitive pricing and slim profit margins, we cannot offer reshipments or refunds for delivery issues resulting from "incorrect address" or "no mail receptacle" situations.
