Please Preserve Lupine Locations and our Beautiful Views, Thanks to all who do!
Please consider the following:
- Enjoy the blossoms and the view, but leave the area the same as you found it.
- 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
- 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.
- Click Here for more information on preventing Tick Bites
- 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.
- Do not dig up Lupines. The taproot is usually 3 times their height
- Do not pick the Lupines. Seed Pods come after the bloom and provide both food for animals and seeds for future plants.

June 9: Evening sun makes photos a challenge but these lupines on Lovers Lane were begging for a photo.

June 9 Evening on Grand View Rd. I put my self more in the shadows and a bit further down the road to get a much better shot.

June 6: Raining this morning but Lupines on Sunset Hill Road are beautiful. There are 3 locations. The first field(s) as you come onto the road, another on the same side of road but field dips down, and then 3rd location is next to parking lot across from Sunset Hill Inn.
2026 Early Season Lupines

June 3 Evening Glow on Sunset Hill Road. Photo by Chris Whiton. His note: I hear quite a few tales about the ticks being particularly bad this year, so I stayed out of the field and on the pavement. Black flies and mosquitoes, however, had no trouble finding me.

June 2: Lupines across the road from Polly's Pancake Parlor. I did take this photo from the mowed section but stayed out of the lupines to keep them nice for others and to cut down on the ticks that attach themselves to me.

June 2: Another view of Polly's lupines - they are still coming. Please stay on the mowed section so they can come without interruption.

June 2 Another field on the Sunset Hill Road - it needs a few more days of sun for the blossoms to really pop.
