Planting and Care Guide

Planting Tips

Plant in moist, well-drained, slightly acidic soil amended with compost. Space 18-24 inches apart. Water thoroughly after planting and mulch around the base.

Care Tips

Water consistently throughout the season. Deadhead spent spikes promptly for continuous bloom. More vigorous and longer-lived than older lupine strains. Allow some self-sowing to maintain the planting. Watch for aphids and slugs. Mulch to keep the root zone cool and moist. Red Rum features deep, velvety crimson-red flower spikes that are among the most intensely colored in the West Country range- bold and dramatic in the border.
