SHOWY MILKWEED. American native wildflower. Milkweed is the primary food plant of monarch butterfly caterpillars. The monarch population has been decreasing by 50% a year for over ten years. The reason is not enough wild milkweed for the babies to eat. Once established this plant requires very little care. Drought tolerant. One plant of Showy Milkweed will form a large clump by its spreading rhizomes, which can be divided. This happens during its second season and beyond. Not picky about soils. Does well in containers. Some can live ten years. 50+ Quality heirloom seeds.
Some American Native Wildflower seeds need to go through a cold winter to germinate. This plant is one of them. They do this so the seed won’t sprout in fall, only to have the seedling not make it through a cold winter. I have stratified these seeds to simulate a cold winter(stratification) This raises the germination rate considerably. Thanks for looking!!
