How Do You Grow Lupin Flowers?

Some lupin varieties are perennials while others are annuals. To grow perennial lupins it is best to use the transplant method and for annual lupins the direct sowing method is suitable. Sow seed into well-drained soil that’s approximately between 15-25°C for the best results. Lupins will take between 14-21 days to germinate. It’s important to remember that perennial Lupin varieties will mature the second season from transplant, so be sure to consider this when you’re wanting them to flower. Position lupin flowers NZ wide in full sun for the strongest spikes, though partial shade works in hotter regions. When you grow lupin successfully, you’ll enjoy vertical flowers that attract bees and provide vibrant colour throughout summer. Kings Seeds supplies lupin seeds NZ gardeners can rely on, with detailed growing advice to help both beginners and experienced growers achieve beautiful results.


What do you do with Lupins Once They Finish Flowering?

After lupin flowers fade, gardeners can deadhead the blooms to encourage further flowering. Cutting back spikes prevents excess seed drop and keeps beds tidy. For perennial types, trim foliage back to ground level in late autumn to prepare for next spring. It’s recommended you refresh soil with compost to support plants after flowering, ensuring vibrant growth and strong flowering next year. 


Where is the Best Place to Grow Lupins?

To grow lupin seeds successfully, choose sunny, well-drained positions sheltered from strong winds. Lupin flowers’ fill NZ gardens with bold colour when planted in borders, along fences, or grouped as cottage-style features. Lupin seeds can generally be planted across New Zealand in different Southern and Northern regions, generally preferring slightly cooler soil between 13-18°C. Lupin seeds are best planted in garden beds and borders, but depending on the type may suit other planting areas, such as dwarf varieties in large containers or cover crops varieties, like the Blue Lupin, across the garden. All varieties have nitrogen-fixing properties. Kings Seeds supplies premium lupin seeds that NZ gardeners can trust, helping every gardener grow beautiful lupins.
