Asclepias tuberosa. This native milkweed variety is also known as 'butterfly milkweed' and is a host plant for monarch butterfly caterpillars. It is a more compact variety with orange flowers, and is a great landscaping choice. This is a short-lived perennial, with plants often coming back a second year. Collect the seeds from the interesting pods so you can continue to have plants for years.

Our milkweed plants are grown from heirloom non-GMO seed.
