Viime pÀivien lupiinikuvia tienvarsilta ja omasta pihasta. :)
Hello all! In Finland, a heated debate is raging between Lupin lovers and Lupin haters. Unfortunately no distinction is made between Lupinus polyphyllus (classed as an invasive species here) and its garden cultivars.
Naturally, I continue to take photos of them as long as I can, in our garden and alongside the roads. :)
Ihania kesÀpÀiviÀ kaikille!
Take time to enjoy the season! :)
Ljuvliga bilder pÄ lupinerna! Ja mÄnga sÀger att det Àr ett ogrÀs men jag tycker att den Àr vacker :)
VastaaPoistaHa en fortsatt fin sommarvecka...
Kram Titti
Tack sĂ„ mycket, Titti! Trevlig helg! đș
PoistaFabulous pictures!Have a lovely week ahead!Hugs!
VastaaPoistaI love seeing the lupins growing along the highways here. I think they are beautiful.
VastaaPoistaThank you very much, Maristella and Lorrie! There seem to be truly spectacular lupin areas in Canada...
PoistaStay safe and well!
Upeita ovat. Omat kirjolupiinini ovat pettymys. Varret ovat heikkoja ja ihan normivÀrisiÀkin.
VastaaPoistaOn ne kauniitađ Huokaus!
VastaaPoistaLupiinit tuoksuvat kyllĂ€ niin ihanille, lapsena niitĂ€ usein siskojen kanssa Ă€idille kerĂ€ttiin:) Aurinkoista viikkoa sinne♥
VastaaPoistakauniita!
VastaaPoistaKiitos paljon, Satu, Maatuska, PĂ€de ja Sussi!
PoistaOn kokemusta siitÀ, ettÀ siemenpussin kuvassa on voimakkaanvÀrisiÀ lupiineja, mutta itÀneillÀ kasveilla on hyvin vaaleat kukat!
Lupiinit levittÀvÀt todella miellyttÀvÀÀ tuoksua. :)
Ihanaa viikonloppua!
Wonderful lupines, wonderful pollinators, wonderful garden, and no doubt wonderful fragrance! It is pretty straightforward for me, Sara! Oh, and by the way, I am relieved to know that Finland is not part of Russia! Enjoy the week ahead,
VastaaPoistaI'm very protective of the few lupins that we have growing in the garden. The slugs love them so many small ones that have been cultivated are eaten before they can get established. It must be wonderful to see them growing wild. So many of them! Wishing you a peaceful week ahead.
VastaaPoistaThank you very much, David and Linda!
PoistaIn our area, we don't have the problem of slugs... yet. Have you tried growing lupins in pots, not transplanting them into the ground, Linda?
I am relieved too, David. When I was young, the country's status was somewhat unclear. :D
Stay safe and well!
We do start some plants that are vulnerable to slugs in pots until they get mature. I keep lupins and delphiniums inside the enclosed conservatory/yard. One lupin has been planted in a flower bed and is now established. I was pleased to see a few flowers.
PoistaOn ne vaan kauniita!
VastaaPoistaKyllÀ ne on good ja kuvasi hienoja.
VastaaPoistaKauniita vÀrejÀ lupiineissa. Muistankin sinun olevan suuri lupiinien ystÀvÀ.
VastaaPoistaIhania kesÀpÀiviÀ myös sinulle. Nyt lÀmpöÀ ja aurinkoa riittÀÀ.
Kiitos paljon, Anne, Eija ja Kruunuvuokko!
PoistaIhanaa viikonloppua!

Thank you, #176 and #177!
PoistaFollowing as long as you follow. ;)
Wondrous, stunning, colourful, vibrant and majestic, how sad that they are considered invasive. Thank you for these spectacular images Sara. They bring me so much joy!
VastaaPoistaThank you, Helen! The incredible Australian flora never ceases to amaze me.
PoistaHave a happy and safe weekend!
I guess any plant can be invasive in the right setting. They sure are beautiful, though. I tried to grow our native Lupine in the garden this year and completely failed.
VastaaPoistaKauniita kuvia kauniista kukista!
VastaaPoistaThank you, Jason! đș Kiitos, Vintagentti!
