Description
Common milkweed (Asclepias syriaca) produces stout, upright stems usually 4 to 6 feet tall, with clusters of fragrant pink flowers in summer. It can spread vigorously by creeping rhizomes but is worth growing in an out-of-the-way spot as a host plant for monarch butterfly larvae. This US native also attracts a variety of beneficial pollinators. It’s so important to grow this plant, wherever you can. These seeds are from wild plants growing in my meadow here at Hayefield in Bucks County, PA. Full sun. Perennial; Zones 4 to 9.
Collected in late September and early October 2023. PA ecotype. At least 20 seeds. Shipping to US addresses only.
Please read the germination information as well before ordering.
