Lupin 'Gladiator'

Lupinus Gladiator is an upright, bushy, perennial plant with a clump-forming habit and sturdy, tall stems with palmate, dark green leaves. Flowering a little later than many other lupins, this striking variety has tall spikes of densely packed, pea-shaped, vivid orange and yellow flowers. This bicoloured form is ideal for extending the season and to provide interest and structure to your garden. A popular cottage garden plant that will create a striking colour theme when added to borders and patio containers.

Provide a sheltered location to protect your Lupines from winds or stake the flowers well with bamboo canes in spring before the flowers appear. Deadhead regularly to encourage a second flush of flowers. Protect the young plants from slug and snail attacks.
