Slender Goldenbanner (Thermopsis gracilis) Seed Packet WW
$4.50
Please select all options.
Thermopsis is sometimes referred to as "false lupine" because of their distinct similarities. The slender goldenbanner has lupine-like spires of sunny yellow pea-like flowers that are held up above bunches of rich-green, ternately compound leaves. This species is rhizomatous so you will get some spread - but it is not aggressive. Considered rare in some areas, it is a welcome addition to Willamette Wildlings' seed offerings. Great for pollinators - especially bumblebees!
