Lupinus nevadensis
Lupinus nevadensis
Nevada lupine is a slow-growing western native that thrives in partial shade with well-draining, slightly acidic soil. Water regularly during the growing season but avoid waterlogging, as root rot is a common issue. It is best suited to outdoor rock gardens or naturalized plantings in its native Sierra Nevada range.
