How to grow 

Choose the right location - Texas lupines prefer full sun and well-draining soil. They can tolerate some shade, but too much shade can cause them to become leggy and weak. Prepare the soil - Before planting Texas lupines, prepare the soil by adding compost or other organic matter to improve drainage and fertility. Texas lupines are tolerant of poor soil conditions, but they will perform better in amended soil. Plant the seeds - Texas lupines can be grown from seed. Plant the seeds in the fall or early spring, just below the soil surface. Water well and keep the soil moist until the seeds germinate. Water regularly - Texas lupines need regular watering, especially during dry spells. Water deeply and infrequently to encourage deep root growth. Fertilize sparingly - Texas lupines don't require a lot of fertilizer, but a light application of a balanced fertilizer in the spring can help promote healthy growth. Deadhead regularly - Deadheading spent blooms can help encourage more blooms and prolong the blooming period.
