Lupinus semperflorens

Lupinus semperflorens is a perennial lupine native to South America, likely from the Andes, named for its tendency toward continuous or prolonged flowering as the Latin name implies. It grows in montane grassland and scrubland habitats, producing dense spikes of pea-type flowers over an extended season and palmately compound leaves. Extended flowering may be an adaptation to attract pollinators in the variable climate of Andean environments.
