I am trying the annual Lupines again this spring but so far they haven't started growing.

Up update on those Lupines from White Flower Farm. The two I planted in the upstairs garden died last fall so were long gone before the winter. Bummer. I am not going to try them again in that particular spot. That was two plants and only lasted until August or so and then just shriveled up.

Then an update on the ones out by the Lupine garden around the little tree. So three of the plants in that grouping have come up. I have been watching closely and I am sure this is it, there is no sign of even dried out roots on most of the rest of them.

I am going to try again. I am going to go back to the nursery I bought these at and buy replacement plants for this section of garden. In the back of my mind I was thinking of adding to the Lupines this year but instead I have to go out to buy new ones to replace most of those that were already there. So I doubt I will enlarge it.
