Everwilde Farms - 140 Small Lupine Native Wildflower Seeds - Gold Vault Jumbo Bulk Seed Packet

Small, but mighty, this short variety produces stunning blue-violet blossoms. This wildflower is a native of the Pacific Coast, but can easily be adapted as an annual to most garden conditions. The name Lupine comes from the Latin "lupus," meaning wolf. This refers to the folk belief that this plant took nutrients from the soil. Ironically, this plant actually improves the soil because of its nitrogen fixing abilities. This plant's species name "polycarpus" comes from the Latin words for "fruitful."
