It's Lupine; we have it all over here---gorgeous colors!!
A riot of color - beautiful...
Yes, Russell's lupins, although these were introduced and are considered an invasive species in NZ. My mother used to live near the man who bred these, George Russell. This retired gardener from York began breeding them at the age of 54, using two allotments, and finally staged his first exhibit at the Chelsea Flower Show in 1938 aged 79.
'George Russell died at the grand old age of 94 in 1951 - having become a legend in his own lifetime. Every packet of Russell Lupin seed bore a picture of a twinkly-eyed old man in a grandad shirt - Russell himself - and this tradition carried on for many years.'
Beautiful Lupine! We have them wild in our lot behind Treasure House.
So Beautiful !!!!
