Butterfly Weed
Butterfly weed is a type of milkweed that attracts many butterflies and pollinators. It's the #1 perennial used in pollinator gardens and our best-selling plant at TN Nursery. The Asclepias Tuberosa (Latin) is superior to most other plants due to its attractive winged beauty and resilient nature with low maintenance care.
Butterfly Weed Is Rich In Nectar
With nectar-rich blooms of deep orange, this plant is drought tolerant and native to the southeastern United States. It grows natively in some areas in dry sandy soils and is a Monarch's favorite rich nectar-filled plant from which to feast.
Butterfly Weed Is The #1 Staple In Butterfly Gardens
Butterfly Weed was used in sanctuaries and gardens for over half a decade but is almost extinct. Perennial gardens are very popular with homeowners. Native plant varieties are hardy, pest—and disease-resistant, making them very popular.
Butterfly Weed Is Pest and Disease Resistant

I was not sure which end to plant but since Butterfly weed is a tap root I planted the larger fleshy part down. They are all ready putting out green leaves. It is just another ‘I can’t wait to spring’ moment. Quick delivery and love the two for one since I have problems getting this plant to grow in my soil.
Got more than I hoped for! Can’t wait for new flowers in my garden❤️
I had butterfly weed planted in 5 places a couple years old. I lost all but one and I have potted yours for replacement when I can. Hope they live through winter
Just got my plants they look wonderful still damp, and ready to set out. We are in the middle of a very dry hot period right now I hope they will make it.
