Lupinus sericeus var. asotinensis

Lupinus garfieldensis, commonly known as the Garfield lupine or the Asotin Silky lupine, [1] is a species of lupine native to eastern Washington state. [2]

Contents


Distribution and habitat

The Garfield lupine is most commonly found in May and June. It can be found in the grassland habitat. The most common elevations for the plant to be found is 610–1,220 m (2,000–4,000 ft). [2]

The Garfield lupine is found along the Snake river, in Garfield, Asotin, and southern Whitman county. [1]

The Garfield lupine has a global species rank of G3Q, which means that the plant is rare but not imperilled and that uncertainty exists about status. [3]

Description

The physical description of Lupinus Garfieldnesis is that the solid stems are 1–2 m (3 ft 3 in – 6 ft 7 in) long and a little hairy. The compound leaves are alternate and petiole. Leaves palmately 5-11 foliate. The stipules are persistent and adnate to petiole. The bracts are present and small. The flowers are zygomorphic, and the petals are separate, clawed, and orange or yellow. The fruit is a legume, unilocular, freely dehiscent, and exerted from calyx. The seeds are smooth and range in color from olive, to brown, to black. [4]

Even though it could be mistaken for Lupinus sabinianus or Lupinus sericeus , they can be differentiated by their alkaloid profiles. [5]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Lupin bean</span> Yellow legume seeds used as food

Lupin or lupini are the yellow legume seeds of the genus Lupinus. They are traditionally eaten as a pickled snack food, primarily in the Mediterranean basin, Latin America and North Africa. The most ancient evidence of lupin is from ancient Egypt, dating back to the 22nd century BCE. The bitter variety of the beans are high in alkaloids and are extremely bitter unless rinsed methodically. Low alkaloid cultivars called sweet lupins have been bred, and are increasingly planted.

<i>Lupinus caudatus</i> Species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae

Lupinus caudatus is a widespread species of wildflower in genus Lupinus from western North America known by the common names tailcup lupin and spurred lupin. It is distinctive for the short spur on its purple-blue flowers, for which it is named. Because of its wide distribution and toxicity it commonly causes poisonings of susceptible livestock such as horses, cattle, and sheep, though it is eaten without harm by wild herbivores like deer and elk. It is generally found from the Coastal Ranges and Sierra Nevada Mountains in the west to the Rocky Mountains in the east.
