Add Vertical Drama with Lupin ‘Legendary Yellow Shades’

Few plants add summer height and drama like the Lupin ‘Legendary Yellow Shades’. This striking herbaceous perennial produces bold, upright spires of densely packed flowers in luminous shades of butter-yellow and gold. Each flower spike rises majestically above neat mounds of architectural, palmate blue-green foliage, creating a vibrant and sunny display from late spring right into the heart of summer. Its vertical form and bright palette bring a sense of joy and structure to any garden setting.

Supplied as a large, well-rooted 2L plant grown in premium peat-free compost, these Lupins are established and ready to bloom strongly in their first summer. Their nectar-rich flowers are a favorite for bees and butterflies, making them as valuable for biodiversity as they are beautiful to behold. Whether mass-planted for bold drifts of sunshine-coloured blooms or blended with other perennials, they add a timeless garden charm and essential vertical lift to your borders.

At The Rose Press Garden, we love...
The way these Lupins look like "sunshine on a stick!" There is something so nostalgic and grand about a Lupin spire, and the ‘Legendary Yellow’ shades are particularly good at brightening up a border. We love providing these in 2L rootballs because they are substantial enough to give you those iconic tall flowers in their very first season, ensuring your garden feels full, tall, and full of life.
