Description
Lupinus ‘Gallery Pink’ is a compact clump-forming perennial with divided deep-green foliage and scented pink racemes held on upright stems. Its late-spring and early-summer display brings crisp vertical color to cottage borders, cutting gardens, banks, slopes, and pollinator plantings.
Grow it in full sun or light partial shade and moderately fertile, light, moist but well-drained acid to neutral soil. Water evenly during establishment and flowering, avoiding persistent winter wet. Space plants about 50 centimeters apart, remove faded spikes for possible rebloom, and propagate the named cultivar from basal cuttings in mid-spring.
