Lupinus gredensis, commonly known as Gredos Lupine, is an annual herb that is native to the mountainous regions of Central Spain, particularly the Sierra de Gredos. It is found in alpine meadows and grasslands. It exhibits a moderate growth rate, reaching heights and widths of 1-2 feet (0.3-0.6 meters). The Gredos Lupine has a distinctive appearance with its palmate leaves and erect racemes of blue or purple flowers, which are highly showy and bloom in the spring. The plant adds a vibrant splash of color to garden settings during its flowering season.

Gredos Lupine is valued for its ornamental flowers and is often used in wildflower gardens, borders, and as a part of pollinator-friendly plantings due to its attractiveness to bees and butterflies. It thrives in full sun and requires well-drained soils, preferably sandy or loamy. While it is relatively low-maintenance, it can be susceptible to fungal diseases if conditions are too wet. It is not known to have aggressive roots, but as with many lupines, it may self-seed if conditions are favorable.CC BY-SA 4.0
