Lupinus nanus ("sky lupine", "field lupine", "dwarf lupin" or "Douglas' annual lupine"), is a species of lupine native to the western United States. It grows naturally in chaparral clearings and along slopes in California, Nevada, and on Steens Mountain in eastern Oregon.

There are three accepted subspecies of Lupinus nanus:[1]

  • Lupinus nanus subsp. latifolius (Benth. ex Torr.) D.Dunn
  • Lupinus nanus subsp. menkerae (C.P.Sm.) D.Dunn (commonly called Menker's lupine)
  • Lupinus nanus subsp. nanus

Lupinus nanus is often found in mixed populations with Lupinus bicolor, Lupinus pachylobus, Lupinus micranthus, and Lupinus vallicola (some of these species are not currently recognized as distinct taxa in the Jepson Manual).
