Description

The highest quality Lupin ever grown from seed! T&M flower breeders have done it again! Many years of breeding and selection have now given us this stunning new Lupin Tutti Frutti™. Never before has there been a Lupin with as high a quality flower spike from seed. Normally, to get this quality, you would have to buy expensive cutting raised plants. Not only has Tutti Frutti™ been bred for its many large, top quality flower spikes on each plant, but it is also first year flowering from seed. Tutti Frutti™ has also been specially selected for its mouthwatering range of attractive bicoloured flowers, in many different colour tones, many never seen before. This spectacular mixture is sure to add height, character and interest to the borders in your garden. T&M is offering a unique opportunity to grow this high quality Lupin selection at a fraction of the cost of cutting raised plants.

Sowing Instructions

Soak seed overnight before sowing. Germinate at 18-20C (64-68F) on the surface of good free draining compost. Apply a layer of compost of vermiculite, 3mm (1/8in) deep. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a polythene bag until after germination, which usually takes 18-21 days.

Growing Instructions

Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle into 7.5cm (3in) pots and place in cooler conditions. After all risk of frost, plant out 30cm (12in) apart.

Caution

All parts are poisonous.
