BUTTERFLY WEED CARMINE ROSE (Asclepias Tuberosa) |
Butterfly Weed (Asclepias Incarnata) - Blooms the first year from flower seed and tolerates heat, humidity, and even drought! Asclepias Incarnata flowers are fragrant, colorful, and carefree! A magnet for butterflies, Butterfly Weed has flat-topped flower clusters that are easy for butterflies to land on, and they are vanilla-scented and rich in nectar. Growing Asclepias flower seeds is so rewarding knowing that these plants will soon be providing a food source for beneficial insects. SOWING: Sowing: February - June Season: Perennial Height: 36 inches (90 cm) Bloom Season: Early summer to autumn Bloom Colour: Carmine Rose Environment: Full sun to partial shade Light Required: No Depth: Do not cover Moisture: Keep soil slightly moist but not wet Plant Spacing: 24 inches (60 cm) Many gardeners recommend a cold treatment to help Butterfly Weed seeds germinate more quickly. To do this, dampen a paper towel, place the flower seeds on the towel and seal it in a ziploc bag. Place the bag in the refrigerator for 3 - 4 weeks. After the cold treatment, start the Butterfly Weed seeds indoors. Do not cover the flower seeds as they need light to germinate. Transplant the Butterfly Weed plants outdoors once temperatures are warm and the plants have 4 - 5 leaves. |
