2026 Lupine Diary

Please Preserve Lupine Locations and our Beautiful Views,  Thanks to all who do!
    Please consider the following:

  1.  Enjoy the blossoms and the view, but leave the area the same as you found it.
  2.  Do not walk in the Lupines unless there is a mown path.
    • If there is a beaten down path, that is not a proper path and was made by people that didn’t follow #1 above.
    • Lupines bloom the 2nd year, crushing the small year-old plants means they won’t bloom next year
  3. Check for Ticks!! With every photo on this page, I have collected 1-3 ticks and I DO NOT go in the field or grass as I stay on the pavement.   Prevent Lyme Disease.
    • Ticks love lupines and love to hitch-hike on you and your pets.
    • Even if you stay on pavement or road, you might have picked up a tick.

    • This is good reason to enjoy lupines from a distance!   I have been on pavement, photographing lupine and collected a few ticks without even walking into the field or grass by the lupine.
  4. Do not dig up Lupines.  The taproot is usually 3 times their height
  5. Do not pick the Lupines.  Seed Pods come after the bloom and provide both food for animals and seeds for future plants.
