Butterfly Milkweed Seeds for Planting - Grow Asclepias Tuberosa - Attract Butterflies + Conservation - Non-GMO Heirloom Seeds

About this item

• 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.
