Comments about American Meadows Arroyo Lupine Seeds - 1/4 LB:

I planted Arroyo lupines in 2008. They bloomed the first year and reseeded generously in 2009. I had tried lupines before without success but these did extremely well in the Arizona desert.

Comments about American Meadows Arroyo Lupine Seeds - 1/4 LB:

I spread copious amounts of this seed over a sunny hillside, with plenty of water. Lots of greenery and very little bloom. Very disappointing as the wild lupines are going crazy all over the county and these are...not.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
