Van Zyverden Asclepias Gay Butterfly Mixture Support The Monarchs Set of 3 Plant Roots Multicolor Partial Sun Fragrant 1 lb

BRING HOME THE BUTTERFLIES! Asclepias is also known by its common name "Milkweed", among several others. It is a herbaceous perennial. Tropical, multitasking milkweed attracts monarch butterflies that use the plant as a source for nectar. Monarch butterflies lay eggs on this plant, and in turn, the resulting larvae (Caterpillars) use the plant leaves as a food source. Plant en masse to create curb appeal and to help support threatened wildlife. It is very easy to care for, deer and rabbit resistant, and will still flower while it produces seed-blooms all season. Starting with our sizable roots instead of seed, they assure a full season of bloom. It can also be grown as a container plant. Asclepias Gay Butterfly Mixture, also known as butterfly weed, is among the more popular choices of our Asclepias. The mixture consists of orange, red and yellow blooming varieties. They are drought tolerant and very easy to care for. Plant this pernnial in a location with partial sun.
