Asclepias tuberosa / Butterfly Milkweed

$15.00

A stunning milkweed species with bright orange flowers. Unlike some of the other milkweeds, this one forms a clump of many stems, giving it a more mounded profile. It attracts many insects and butterflies and is a host plant for monarch caterpillars. With a deep taproot, it doesn’t like to be moved, so be sure to plant it in the right place, with lots of sun. It is slow to emerge in the spring, so don’t worry if you haven’t seen a sign of it by late May!

Sun Exposure: Sun, Partial Shade

Soil Moisture: Medium, Medium-Dry, Dry

Height: 2-3 ft

Bloom Time: July, August

Bloom Colour: Orange

Available in a 5” x 7” pot.
