Rose Swamp Milkweed Seeds - Planting Instructions Included - Attract Monarch Butterflies - Non-GMO Heirloom Variety

About this item

• Swamp Milkweed - Also known as rose milkweed, red milkweed, or marsh milkweed, Asclepias incarnata is a perennial wildflower with a native range over most of North America. Its flowers are a beautiful dusky pink color, with small star-shaped blooms growing in clusters. These bushes thrive in wetlands and moist outdoor conditions and will not spread as much as common milkweed.
• Attract Monarchs - Milkweed is vital to the monarch butterfly and caterpillar 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.
• The Info You Need to Grow - Seeds are packed in a beautiful paper packet with instructions for successful growing and germination in your home garden. Each package includes information on saving seeds after harvest.
• Small American Family-Owned Business - We pledge to provide fresh, high-quality seeds, including swamp milkweed seeds, that are safe, non-hybrid, non-GMO, open-pollinated, untreated, and tested for excellent germination rates.
