Along the road side on our Jeep adventure.  Lupine was prolific in Alaska, though almost all blue.

  • Pretty! Maybe I liked bluebonnets so much because they're very similar to lupine. Are they related?

  • Did you used to grow this near the driveway at 87 GWRR?

    — John Hovell

  • We did have lupine at GRR, though they never grew profusely as this except one year. Bob Fjeldstad took a picture of that one plant, and I had it mounted (8x11) in a wooden box and displayed it, I think on grandpop's hutch when it was in the library ... or possibly on the bookshelves in the kitchen near the back door. Those lupine were pink.

  • Yep! That's the one I'm thinking of. I swore it was purple though.
