Gallery Pink Lupine – Compact, Showy Blooms
Gallery Pink Lupine (Lupinus polyphyllus 'Gallery Pink') is a compact, breathtaking perennial that produces tall spikes of soft pink, pea-like flowers in late spring to early summer. This dwarf variety, part of the renowned Gallery Series, provides the classic vertical appeal of larger Lupines. Its vibrant blooms are a magnet for bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, making it a top choice for pollinator-friendly gardens!
This herbaceous perennial grows in a tidy, clump-forming habit, reaching about 18-24 inches tall and wide. Its deep green, palmately divided leaves add a lush, textural contrast to the towering flower spikes.
