Lupinus bingenensis, common name bingen lupine or Suksdorf's lupine, is a plant species native to the US states of Washington (state) , Idaho, Montana and Oregon as well as from British Columbia. Lupinus grows well in mountainous regions. The name honors the city of Bingen, in Klickitat County, Washington (state) .[3][4]
Lupinus bingenensis is a perennial herb up to 100 cm (40 inches)tall, most of the shoots covered with silky hairs.

Flowers are blue to lavender, borne in racemes up to 20 cm (8 inches) long.[5][6][7]
