200 BUTTERFLY WEED SEEDS

Asclepias tuberosa

Asclepias tuberosa, commonly known as Butterfly Weed, is a native North American perennial. It features vibrant orange or yellow flowers and blooms in summer, attracting pollinators like butterflies. This drought-tolerant plant grows to about 1-3 feet tall with lance-shaped leaves. It's well-suited for sunny, well-draining gardens and thrives in USDA hardiness zones 3-9. Butterfly Weed serves as a host plant for Monarch butterfly larvae and is a valuable addition to wildlife-friendly landscapes.

Germinating Asclepias tuberosa seeds

To germinate Asclepias tuberosa seeds, cold stratification is recommended. Sow the seeds in a seed tray, press them gently into the soil, and moisten. Place the tray in a plastic bag and refrigerate for 4-6 weeks. Afterward, move the tray to a warm and sunny location to encourage germination. Detailed germination instructions will be included with your order!
