单词	lupin
释义	lupin /ˈluːpɪn / (North American also lupine /ˈluːpɪn/) noun A plant of the pea family with deeply divided leaves and tall colourful tapering spikes of flowers. Genus Lupinus, family Leguminosae: several species. The slugs also preferred the leaves of lucerne, white clover and lupins, to the wheat plants.... Their curiosity got the better of them when they noticed that, unlike other crops, plants in the legume family - beans, peas, alfalfa, lupines, vetch - thrived even in nitrogen-deficient soils. Planted along with traditional peonies, irises and chrysanthemums, are lupines, veronicas and Canterbury bells, a contemporary feature rarely seen in Japanese gardens. Origin Late Middle English: from Latin lupinus. Rhymes lupine
