Botanic Name:
Lupinus arboreus Common Name: Yellow Bush Lupine Size: 5'h x 5'w Sun: Sun H20: Occ.H2O/dry
A fast growing shrub, to 4' or 5' tall, and as wide, covered with lovely yellow flowers in May. The Yellow Bush Lupine is rarely found further than a mile from the coast, but is surprisingly adaptable - a former employee has a beautiful specimen in her garden near Yosemite. Plant it in a well-drained spot, in full sun, then sit back and enjoy the show. A native to the coastal bluffs from Ventura County north to Sonoma County. It is found further north, but was probably introduced there. A good pruning in fall will encourage a bushier plant the following season.
