Its an endemic plant of Madeira and Canary Island
Blooming all over this part of South California this time of season...attracting bees and hummingbirds in mass.

I'd agree it looks like it's in the lupine family, but the specific is not familiar to me, either.

Thanks! This was my first sighting. I'm excited to be part of the project!

The leaves make me think it is Lupine, but I need confirmation from someone else.
