When are the lupine going to be in FULL bloom?

That question is asked often every year and we try to answer it as best we can.  We take daily photos of the lupine in our area to keep you all up to date with Today's Lupine Photo.  If you look in the left margin of this page, you can also check photos and dates of blooming from previous years. You can also be up-to-date by checking the Fields of Lupine Festival Facebook
