DESCRIPTION
Lupinus polyphyllus Westcountry 'Salmon Star' produces flower spikes in soft salmon-pink tones with warm peach and cream highlights, blooming from late spring into early summer. Palmate leaves are composed of numerous narrow leaflets arranged in a circular pattern, forming a lush mound of blue-green foliage beneath the blooms. The flowers are carried on sturdy stems above the leaves that attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators throughout the flowering season.
Originating from the Westcountry series developed in England and derived from a species native to western North America, this cultivar reflects breeding focused on flower quality and ornamental display. It is well suited to cottage gardens, mixed borders, and pollinator plantings, where its colorful flower spikes provide structure, texture, and seasonal interest.
