A variety of lupine:
"The bluebonnet, a name common to several North American species of Lupinus, is the state flower of Texas."
"Although Lupinus texensis is almost exclusively blue in the wild, Texas A%26amp;M University researchers were successful in breeding red and white strains, creating a Texas state flag in bluebonnets for the 1986 Texas Sesquicentennial. Further research led to a deep maroon strain, the university's official color."
I find no lookalikes....hollyhocks have a similar growth pattern, but the flower is completely different.
Is there ANOTHER NAME for lupins, or for wild lupins..or another flower very similar to lupins? Thanks.?
Polyphyllus and Nootkatensis. But be careful, the seeds are poisonous.
Reply:Nope. Only lupin and lupine.
