Product Description

Lupinus ‘Salmon Sultan’ is a vibrant perennial Lupin prized for its tall spires of warm salmon-orange blooms that appear throughout June and July. Its unusual flower colour makes it an eye-catching addition to hot-themed planting schemes and pairs beautifully with reds, purples, and soft apricot tones.

Growing to approximately 90cm in height, this architectural plant works particularly well towards the middle or back of garden borders where its upright flower spikes can rise above surrounding perennials. It also performs beautifully in large patio containers, adding structure and colour to outdoor spaces during the summer months.

The attractive deciduous foliage provides texture before and after flowering, while the nectar-rich blooms help support pollinating insects and wildlife in the garden. For best results, plant in a sheltered sunny or lightly shaded position with well-drained soil.
