Holly Hocks & Lupins

Holyhocks are in the main considered to be biennial. That is they spend the first year making root and leaf, the second year flowering and then die.

There are annual and perennial varieties of Lupin. Did you grow them or plant them yourself? I suspect without a seed packet or plant label it'll be hard to know. Most varieties of Lupin I've come across are perennial.

Hi, I bought them off the internet, (plug plants). Kept them in the greenhouse over winter, then put them out in the spring,don't now what variety they are,I will cut them back to 6inch,and take it from there,thanks.
