Description
Lupinus ‘Beef Eater’ is a magnificent lupin with solid, pure red flowers from pinkish red buds that rise up on straight, strong spires. The Westcountry lupins from England are the most beautiful in the world with incredible colours, including bicolours, tons of flowers, and great vigour. Pollinator attractor. Lupins go semi-dormant after blooming. Plant them behind something that is one foot tall and cut back six inches after flowering to encourage new growth and reblooming. Note for mail order customers: Our main shipping season usually coincides with lupin bloom. Your lupin may bloom soon after arrival and then go dormant or arrive already blooming or bloomed and trimmed back. It is not dying or dead. It’s just going dormant. Plant it in the garden. It will reflush later in the season and may rebloom in late summer. Then it will bloom as per usually in spring of the following year.
