About Lupinus duranii Eastw.
Lupinus duranii Eastw. is a tough, compact perennial herb that grows in tufts reaching no more than roughly 12 centimetres (4.7 in) in height. Its basal palmate leaves consist of 5 to 8 shaggy-haired leaflets, each up to 2 centimetres (0.79 in) long. The inflorescence is a crowded raceme of flowers: each flower is about one centimeter long, arranged in whorls around a stout, hairy stem. The flower is purple, with a white patch on its banner. It produces a legume pod 1 to 2 centimetres (0.79 in) long that holds white seeds.
