Gallery Pink Lupine, Lupinus polyphyllus ‘Gallery Pink’, or Lupinus ‘Gallery Pink’, is a dwarf biennial lupine that blooms during the late spring or early summer with dense pyramidal spires of vivid pink, two-toned, sweet pea-like flowers. Reaching a mature height of 18 to 24 inches, with a spread of 15 to 18 inches, the Gallery Pink Lupine produces mounds of finely-textured, emerald green, palmate foliage that is evergreen in most climates. The Gallery Pink Lupine makes a wonderful cut flower option and is beloved by florists and growers for its remarkable color and interesting structure.
Hailing from the Pacific Northwest, Gallery Pink Lupine, one of the famous Russell Lupines, has an upright, compact, mounding habit. It is mildew resistant, as well as resistant to deer and other critters. This low-maintenance beauty attracts butterfly larvae and hummingbirds, as well as supports critical pollinators, who can’t resist its flashy colors and sweet nectar. It is self-seeding, as well as fast-growing.
Gallery Pink Lupine Care
Gallery Pink Lupine grows best when the soil is rich, slightly-acidic, and has ample drainage. It also grows well in clay. The Gallery Pink can even handle slightly dry soil once it has been established. This Lupine prefers full to partial sun and will need to be watered weekly. It cannot tolerate standing water.
Once the flowerhead has spent, deadhead your Lupine to encourage growth in the following season. In the late fall, you can cut your Gallery Pink Lupine, but be careful not to disturb the plant's crown during winter and spring.
Gallery Pink Lupine Spacing
Gallery Pink Lupine is an excellent accent for pots, containers, and any other small spaces in need of a swatch of color. They work well planted en masse or when placed in mixed perennial borders. Gallery Pink Lupine will need ample air circulation to thrive. Plant them at least 18 inches apart from center to center.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
