The Common Milkweed, also known as butterfly flower, silkweed, silky swallow-wort, and Virginia silkweed, is a perennial wildflower that grows 24-40" tall and has broad leaves and clusters of small pink star-shaped flowers. This plant is vital to monarch butterfly and caterpillar as food, a place to live, lay eggs, and navigate by. Bee, hummingbird, and other wild pollinator species also visit this plant, making it a valuable addition to your wildflower mix.

For best results, the seeds should be cold-stratified to recreate winter conditions and prime them for planting. This can be done by sprinkling the seeds into a damp paper towel, rolling it up, and storing it in the refrigerator for 2-3 weeks before sowing them as usual. Stratification encourages the seeds to sprout, giving you more young seedlings to become healthy plants.

The seeds come in a beautiful paper packet with instructions for successful growing and germination, as well as instructions for saving seeds after harvest. 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.

Whether you are a beginner or an experienced gardener, getting started with Survival Garden Seeds is simple. Their safe, non-hybrid, non-GMO, heirloom seeds are always open-pollinated and naturally grown, ensuring the best possible results in your home garden.
