***NOT TO WA***  

(Lupinus angustifolius)  Attractive plant.  Commonly used as a feed for animals or a green manure crop adding nitrogen, phosphorus & organic matter to the soil.  Due to its long tap root, it is capable of extracting a wide range of nutrients & is useful for breaking up hard, compacted soils.  Also useful in attracting bees, butterflies & other beneficial insects to the garden.  Disease resistant.  

Best grown on well drained & sandy loam soils.  

When grown as a green manure crop, plants are best dug back into the soil when the leaves are still fresh & green after approx. 8 weeks after planting.  Allow the green manure to break down in the soil for up to 4 weeks before planting any vegetables..

Broadcast at a rate of 40-50kg/ha.
