Description
Milkweed & Monarchs - Asclepias tuberosa, or "Butterfly Milkweed" is the main host plant for the Monarch Butterfly! Monarchs have been declining for the past few decades due to deforestation.

By planting more milkweed, you can directly affect the success of their migratory pattern, and their population! Growth - Butterfly Milkweed will grow to a mature height of roughly 18" to 30" tall. They can spread about 20" to 24" wide and require full sunlight to grow. Quality - All Milkweed seeds packaged by Seed Needs are intended for the current and the following growing seasons. All seeds are stored in a temperature controlled facility that is free of significant amounts of moisture. Quantity - Seed Needs offers generous quantities. You can share with friends and family, or you can save the extra seeds until the following season, if properly stored. Packets - Each seed packet displays an artful illustration of the variety to be grown, as well as detailed seed sowing information on the reverse side. They measure 3.25" wide by 4.50" tall.

Germination - Seed Needs packets contain some of the freshest seed available. Direct from the growers. If sown correctly, you will begin seeing results in only a matter of days. Freshness - All Milkweed seeds are packaged in tear resistant and moisture resistant packaging. This keeps the seeds a whole lot fresher than the competitions selection! Grow Butterfly Milkweed from fresh Asclepias tuberosa flower seeds. Butterfly Milkweed, also known as "Butterfly Weed" will produce beautiful clusters of orange flowers. The plants themselves grow to a mature height of about 18 to 30 inches tall.
