Planting & Care

Sow Red Arrow Lupine seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost or directly outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Scarify seeds by nicking the hard coat or soaking in warm water for 24 hours to improve germination. Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep in moist, well-drained soil. Keep consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs in 14-30 days at 65-70°F (18-21°C).

Once seedlings have developed true leaves, transplant to the garden after hardening off. Provide support for tall flower spikes if grown in windy areas. Water regularly during dry spells, and deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering. Lupines benefit from a layer of mulch to keep roots cool and moist.
