Some of the road ditches in upper Wisconsin are lined with colorful lupines, although most of them are not the native Wild Lupine, but are instead the Large-leaved Lupine which is native to the western states. The wild lupine, native to eastern North America, has leaves that are divided into 7 to 11 leaflets, where as the large-leaved lupine are grouped 9 to 17.
