Description
Showy Orange Flowers - Butterfly milkweed, also known as Asclepias Tuberosa, is a bushy native perennial wildflower. This common variety grows about about 12-18" tall with showy orange flowers. Also known as Pleurisy Root, Butterfly Weed, and Chigger Flower. These native wildflowers have a wide range that stretches from Florida to Canada, and as far west as California. Attract Monarchs - Milkweed is vital to the monarch butterflies and caterpillars as food, a place to live, lay eggs and navigate by. Bee, hummingbird, and other wild pollinator species also will visit this bush. Help with insect conservation by adding milkweeds to your wildflower mix. Cold Stratify for Better Germination - For best results, recreate winter conditions to prime the seeds for planting. For indoor seed starting, sprinkle seeds into a damp paper towel, roll up, and store in the refrigerator for 2-3 weeks, then sow as usual. Stratification encourages seeds to sprout, giving you more young seedlings to become healthy plants. Easy to Grow - Seeds are packed in a beautiful paper packet with instructions for successful growing and germination in your own home garden. Each packet also has instructions for saving seeds after harvest. Getting started is simple for both beginner and experienced gardeners. Quality Seeds - Plant now or store for future growing seasons. These seeds will remain viable for years if stored in a cool dry location. Our safe, non-hybrid non-GMO heirloom seeds are always open-pollinated, naturally grown, untreated, and selected to ensure the best germination rates.

It is an essential plant for monarch butterflies, providing both food and larval habitat. Multiple plantings are best for attracting butterflies.
