Evening allIf your struggling to grow Lupins BigC try Baptisia australis which is blue but they is also yellow / white / chocolate brown / purple blue colour, the flowers look similar to lupin but aren't attacked by slugs. It the same with delphiniums, Aconitums are a good alternative.
I wouldn't say struggling to grow Lupins @Perki..more impatient lol
Well we went to Homebase this evening as I needed some cheap timber to make some apple crates and lo and behold the skies opened and on came the thunder and lightening...I needed a plant pot and some Ericaceous compost and they shut and locked the doors leading to the GC...I was well annoyed as company policy dictated that they would not let anyone out during inclement weather..my skin is waterproof to a degree ...even more annoyed when the jobsworth turned up...whats up with this poxy cotton wool society...I purchased Miracle Gro Grass feed and some timber....eventually the doors opened after the shower of rain and I eventually got my pot and compost
Yes they had some nice Lupins, on the turn, and still they were looking £11.50 a pot...
Please tell me someone...how long does it take from seed to fill a 3ltr pot to a mature plant
