    Imperial Ambush has sweet lupine in it. I planted some mix I ordered from another place back a couple weeks ago that has lupine in it but I have not noticed anything like that yet. Of course it isn't very far along yet either. I've never planted it otherwise.

    I got it in Greencoverseed.com's Cool season large seed flowering mix.

    Y'all are smarter than you look. It is Sweet Lupine. I'm excited to see how the deer like it. It's tough to find plants that do well in extremely sandy soil. So far it is growing well.

    If I wasn't smarter than I look, I wouldn't even have enough IQ to breathe without a respirator.

    Let us know how it works, I'll keep an eye out for it to show up in my plots as well. I had at least thirty different species in mine so I may have a chore picking it out. :lol:
