Silver Lupine

Landscaping anywhere can be a challenge. But landscaping in an arid or rocky area such as those in and around Pismo Beach can be especially challenging.

You may think you have outdoor spaces around your home or business that will never look good, that will never be home to beautiful shrubs or greenery.

At Evergreen Landscaping, we understand your plight, and we’ve spent years designing beautiful backdrops and outdoor living spaces for residents of the Pismo Beach area. We can help you find the perfect plants to give your outdoor areas the exact look and feel you’ve always wanted.

One very popular shrub that we use in a variety of areas is the Silver Lupine. It gets its name from its feathery, silver leaves. The flowers of the Silver Lupine are blue, lavender, or purple, and grow in groups along a stem that can reach up to a foot in length. Not only are the flowers beautiful and great at adding that certain splash of color, but they are very fragrant as well. They are favored perennials for butterfly gardens as well as hummingbird gardens. They also attract bees to their sweet nectar.

Part of the reason for the popularity of the Silver Lupine among Pismo Beach residents and business owners is the variety of areas in which this shrub will thrive. It prefers full sun, and grows best in sandy or rocky soils, but it will also tolerate some moisture.

Silver Lupine are extremely drought resistant and cold resistant, making them perfect for several places where you may have thought you were stuck with just a rock garden or a sand pit.

Silver Lupine grows well with a wide variety of other plants, making their landscaping possibilities nearly endless. At Evergreen Landscaping, we have helped many customers utilize the splash of color and beautiful fragrance in their home outdoor living spaces as well as to create the prefect approach or backdrop for their business. With flowers that bloom from April to September in many regions, it is just might be the perfect shrub for your outdoor space as well.

This perennial species is native to California, Oregon, and even parts of northern Baja. There are four different recognized species of Silver Lupine, but they are all easy to care for and fast growing.

There are other reasons for their popularity among residents looking to beautify their outdoor areas. They can grow to cover a space five feet tall by five feet wide and make a perfect addition to many gardens, approaches and backdrops.
