Elevate your butterfly garden with the native charm of Asclepias Speciosa Showy Milkweed! This delightful perennial is a haven for Monarch butterflies and other pollinators with its clusters of pink and purple starry flowers. As they bloom from summer to fall, the fragrant blossoms create a striking focal point in your garden. Seed pods resembling small warty squash emerge after bloom.

Its low-maintenance nature thrives in full sunlight and well-drained soil. Add a burst of color and allure to your garden while inviting butterflies and other pollinators with this western US native!

Fun Fact: Asclepias are the only plants that Monarch butterflies will lay their eggs on and are critical to their survival. When you grow a Butterfly Weed or Milkweed, you're actually supporting this spectacular species! Allow Monarch caterpillars to eat the plant and develop into butterflies.
