Open-Pollinated, Non-GMO, Neonicotinoid-Free Butterfly Milkweed Seeds

One of the most striking of native plants, butterfly milkweed lights up gardens, meadows and prairies with its glowing aura of brilliant orange flowers. Native to the northeastern and southern United States, this herbaceous perennial is a host plant for the Monarch Butterfly. Milkweed is the sole plant for monarchs to lay their eggs and provide food for their larvae.

Slow and hard to grow, this drought tolerant native may take up to 2 -3 years to flower. Once established, it requires minimal maintenance and will bring years of joy and wonder to your garden, flowering from June - August!

Butterfly milkweed is an important source of nectar for many pollinators, including bees, butterflies and hummingbirds. By planting butterfly milkweed seeds, gardeners can help support local pollinator populations and promote biodiversity in their communities.

We recommend planting only milkweed plant that is native to your area.  Each region is going to have milkweed specific to its area - except the Pacific Northwest and Alaska.

Disclaimer:  We only ship the appropriate milkweed that is native to your region.

Reasons why planting non-native milkweed is detrimental to the Monarchs:

  • In warmer regions, where milkweed does not die back in the winter, a build-up of a debilitating protozoan parasite (Ophryocystis elektroscirrha or OE) that infects monarchs can occur and promote year-round breeding.
  • Non-native milkweed presence in the fall could cause migrating monarchs to break diapause (a temporary non-reproductive state) and lay eggs instead of completing their migration to Mexico.
  • Reseeding (and invasion) of non-native milkweed species.

Blooms late spring throughout the summer. Flowers provide nectar for many butterflies, bees and beneficial insects.  Known as pleurisy root, referencing a prior medicinal use of the roots to treat lung inflammations.

Long bloom period from late spring throughout the summer. Flowers are a nectar source for many butterflies and leaves are a food source for monarch butterfly larvae (caterpillars). Also commonly called pleurisy root in reference to a prior medicinal use of the plant roots to treat lung inflammations.

Genus, Asklepios, honors the Greek god of medicine.

Monarchs will lay their eggs  on the milkweed and caterpillars will emerge around September, while the plant is creating its seed pods.  During this time, the caterpillar will devour the all the leafy matter of the plant and leave the seed pod alone.  It is imperative to allow the caterpillar to attain the nourishment it needs, while in the larvae stage. In 2–3 weeks, it grows to about 2,700 times its birth weight 

It is very important to plant locally native milkweed species.  Please learn which milkweeds are native to your region and consult this milkweed range maps from the Biota of North America Program’s (BONAP) North American Plant Atlas.

    Gardening Tips

      Milkweed seeds must be stratified, if they are planted in the spring, for proper germination. 

      Instructions on how to cold stratify the seeds for spring time planting.

      Milkweed roots are very sensitive.   When transplanting, the milkweed plant may go though shock and could lose all its leaves. Not to worry if this occurs.  Your plants are establishing their roots and will eventually grow leaves again. Taproot can grow up to 16". 

      Grows well in most soil types - preferring well draining, sandy or loamy. 

      Propagates by seed.

      Great Functionality a bit light weight tho!
      Color: Black
      It’s def functional. It looks nice and is not an eye sore. Def will be easy to maintain for cleaning of dust. HOWEVER, four stars simply cause it is a bit top heavy. I will have to find a solution to weight it down so it’s not so top heavy. Possibly in the future they might design a simple one like this with a simple one pound weight across the bottom. Outside of that tiny little issue…a pretty solid simple compact remote holder that functions. Need I say it is Not an eye sore sitting on th coffee table. That was also a winner n my book.

      Minimalist Must-Have.
      Color: Black, Color: Black
      I recently purchased this faux leather remote control holder, and I couldn’t be more impressed. The design is sleek and minimalist, making it a perfect addition to any modern living room. Its elegant finish gives the impression of genuine leather, yet it comes at an excellent price point that makes it accessible without sacrificing style. The craftsmanship is solid, with clean stitching and a sturdy structure that keeps remotes neatly organized. It’s not only functional but also adds a touch of sophistication to the space. For anyone looking to declutter their coffee table while maintaining a refined aesthetic, this product is a fantastic choice. Overall, it combines practicality, elegance, and affordability in a way that’s hard to beat. Highly recommended!
