Silvery Lupine (Lupinus argenteus)
$16.00
The Most Avanced Lupine Seed on the Market.
Silvery Lupine is a western perennial with blue-violet flower spikes that feed native bees while helping improve low-nutrient soil. Its hard seed coat and natural dormancy can cause slow or uneven germination. Each seed is scarified, inoculated with beneficial Rhizobium bacteria, GermiSync™ coated, and formed into a visible pellet for easier planting and reliable establishment.
Covers 30 sq. ft
Silvery Lupine (Lupinus argenteus) is native across the Rocky Mountains and Intermountain West, covering sagebrush flats, mountain meadows, and open slopes from the Pacific Northwest to the southern Rockies and out onto the northern Great Plains.

RAKE
Clear away weeds and debris, then rake the soil until it’s loose and fluffy. Good prep helps the seeds make proper contact with the soil.
SHAKE
Shake pellets directly from the seed shaker. Because each pellet contains a single seed, spacing stays even and planting is controlled.
PRESS
Walk over the area or press the pellets into the soil with your hands or feet. This helps keep them in place and improves seed-to-soil contact.
WATER
Keep the soil consistently moist for the first 14 days to kickstart germination.
