Hello everyone, I planted some lupins in March & it said on the see
packet that they should be flowering next spring. I currently have the
in pots as I didn't want to risk planting them out until I was sure the
would survive slugs. Now however, there are at least two lupin flower
on the plants. What does this early flowering mean, what should I d
next? I'm a complete novice so any advice would be welcome

Christopher Lloyd always grew lupins as annuals as they did not last i
his soil.

If the pots they are in are large enough, leave them but take off th
flower stem to encourage root growth
