Planning a butterfly garden without Butterfly Milkweed? Think again! No flower is more attractive to our lovely winged friends than those of the Milkweed family. Though perhaps suffering from a burdened name, Butterfly Milkweed seeds will reward you handily for purposely planting a "weed" in your garden! For best success with this perennial seed, we recommend Fall Planting. For Spring Planting, seeds should be cold stratified prior to sowing.
