Description
Never judge a plant by its name. Thats certainly the case with this wildflower that isnt really a weed at all. This tough native of North American fields, wetlands, and prairies is the sole host plant for the struggling monarch butterfly. The petite, star-shaped flowers of milkweed are perfectly designed for pollination. Depending on the plant, milkweed flowers bloom in yellow, green, purple, pink, or orange. Equally well-designed are the large seed pods that develop from the fertilized flowers. In the fall, these proficient self-sowers split open to release hundreds of seeds. We offer a tropical variety of milkweed Asclepias curassavica. | American Plant Exchange Tropical Milkweed, A.
