Though molecular data on a related taxa, Lupinus wyethii, suggest that all of them are part of L. polyphyllus. [6]

Bosea lupini growth on Lupinus polyphyllus medium (LMG medium at 155), at 25, 28, and 33 °C. The bacteria showed growth from β-glucosidase and urease processes, and the absorption of potassium gluconate. Bosea lupini did not reduce nitrate to the form of nitrite. It also formed a resistant to amoxicillin and penicillin over time.
Over more than twenty years, he used natural pollination by bumble-bees to develop hybrids with flower spikes that were larger and more colourful than the original Lupinus polyphyllus. He was 79 when he first exhibited at Chelsea, [5] and the Royal Horticultural Society awarded him the Veitch Memorial Medal in 1937 for his achievements. [6]
