Lupinus albifrons "Silver Bush Lupine"Lupinus albifrons "Silver Bush Lupine"

Outstanding shimmering silvery foliage is a fabulous feature of this very rare California native. Extremely drought tolerant, it’s a terrific choice for a dry, well-drained garden or good sized container. Forming an attractive, dense, compact mound “Silver Bush Lupine” also offers a long bloom season Spring thru Summer, displaying good sized spikes of rich purple fragrant pea flowers. It’s easy to grow – just give it full sun & lean, well-drained soil. Excellent for a low maintenance rock garden or parking strip. Host to the endangered Mission Blue Butterfly. 3’-4’ tall.
