Butterfly Milkweed Seeds for Planting - Attract Butterflies & Help Conservation

From the brand Survival Garden Seeds, the company prepares people for the unexpected by empowering them to grow their own food. They know firsthand how growing your own food can make a significant difference in a family's food security and ability to survive. Growing and preserving their own food has enabled them to understand that they can protect themselves from life's ups and downs. The garden has also been a fun, wholesome activity for all.

The company has learned many lessons from the happy hours they spent in the garden as children, and they want to share that joy and passion with their customers. Survival Seed Kits, Heirloom Vegetables, Medicinal & Culinary Herbs, Flowers, Exotic Varieties, and Cover Crops are all available in their store.

One of their products, the Grow Your Own Garden Butterfly Milkweed, is a bushy native perennial wildflower with showy orange flowers, also known as Asclepias Tuberosa, Pleurisy Root, Butterfly Weed, and Chigger Flower. These native wildflowers have a wide range that stretches from Florida to Canada, and as far west as California.

Milkweed is vital to the monarch butterflies and caterpillars as food, a place to live, lay eggs, and navigate by. Bee, hummingbird, and other wild pollinator species also visit this bush, making it an important addition to any wildflower mix for insect conservation.

For best results, the company recommends cold stratifying the seeds to recreate winter conditions and prime them for planting. This encourages the seeds to sprout, giving gardeners more young seedlings to become healthy plants.

The seeds are packed in beautiful paper packets with instructions for successful growing and germination in the customer's own home garden. Each packet also includes instructions for saving seeds after harvest, making it easy for both beginner and experienced gardeners to get started.

The company's seeds are high-quality, non-hybrid, non-GMO, heirloom, open-pollinated, naturally grown, and untreated, ensuring the best germination rates. These seeds can be planted now or stored for future growing seasons, as they will remain viable for years if stored in a cool, dry location.
