Asclepias tuberosa. Though most monarch butterflies prefer other milkweed varieties (like swamp milkweed), this variety will attract many different kinds of butterflies and pollinators. Butterflies love this variety, as the nectar is the perfect food for them. Plant these to attract beneficial insects into the garden and stun the eye with deep red crimson clusters of flowers. Long-lived and hardy perennial.

Love growing these for the butterflies
So excited to watch these grow. MiGardener as always is top quality. fast delivery, even during a busy season.
Can’t wait to plant these
Greatest as always.
Cant wait to plant these in the spring!
Last year I decided to plant a "tunnel" of sunflowers on the other side of my tall blueberry bushes and these added a colorful variety to the typical yellow! These are now a favorite that will be a "grow again!"
I received a packet of this mix with a previous greenstalk order through MIgardener (best price around!) and was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to grow and how delicious it was! I’ve never grown salad greens before and this was the perfect mix. Even after burning out on gardening late in the summer, I will always look forward to growing this salad green mix in the spring. Thanks for introducing me!
Our banana peppers arrived fairly quickly, even though there was a winter storm in Michigan.
I'm sure they will do well, as most seeds from Migardener do well.
I’ve been growing these for multiple years now. I love all the little surprises that come up. I have quite a collection of cactus plants now, thanks to these seed packets.
Excellent germination! Excellent packaging! Probably jumped the gun a bit but only planted 6 seeds for now!
