This drought-tolerant milkweed thrives in poor soils and requires minimal maintenance, making it an excellent choice for wildflower gardens, meadows, and pollinator-friendly landscapes. Unlike other milkweeds, it has non-milky sap, making it unique among its species.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlant Characteristics:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eType: Perennial\u003cbr\u003eLight: Full sun\u003cbr\u003eHeight: 18-30 inches\u003cbr\u003eBloom Time: Summer to early fall\u003cbr\u003eAttracts: Monarch butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds\u003cbr\u003eSoil: Well-draining, sandy or rocky soil; drought-tolerant once established\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHow to Grow from Seed:\u003cbr\u003eFor best germination, cold stratify seeds by placing them in a moist paper towel inside a sealed bag in the refrigerator for 30 days before planting. Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost or directly outdoors in late fall for natural stratification. Lightly press seeds into the soil without covering them, as they require light to germinate. Keep the soil moist until germination, which takes 14-21 days. Once established, Butterfly Weed requires little watering and thrives in dry conditions. Avoid transplanting, as it has a deep taproot. This low-maintenance perennial will return year after year, providing essential food for pollinators.\n        \u003c\/p\u003e\n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Wemetradecp","offers":[{"title":"25 Seeds","offer_id":47151366340796,"sku":"8I9GEAQ","price":1.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0766\/0421\/1388\/files\/Output_306.jpg?v=1784539990","url":"https:\/\/wemetradecp.com\/products\/milkweed-seeds-butterfly-weed-seeds-asclepias-tuberosa","provider":"Wemetradecp","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
