Asclepias Incarnata. Swamp milkweed is vital to the survival of the monarch butterfly. This showy, 2-4 ft perennial grow clumps of small mauve flowers filled with butterfly feeding nectar. This variety grows easily from seed and isn't invasive like some other varieties.
Zones 4-8
I cold stratified and then planted about 18 cells with two seeds per cell. About 7 plants emerged, the rest did not.I’ve never grown this from seed before, but even the ones that did emerge don’t look strong. But I guess we will see if they make it, hope so!
Came up nicely
Best seeds and best gardening youtube channel, especially if you live in Mid West.
These germinated great and were all off to a good start, but they ended up getting potted up into too heavy of dirt and became stressed and got killed off by spider mites shortly after. Will be trying to grow again but will be taking better care of them while young.
Asclepias (Milkweeds) are very important to me, and especially this species! I often get my milkweed seeds from different companies, for a few reasons, but I noticed that my Swamp Milkweed seeds from a different well-known company were significantly smaller, and overall pretty scraggly-looking, compare those to these?- complete 180! These are massive, healthy looking seeds!
Fast to Sprout! Starting inside, as it's March in Michigan.
Seem to be top notch quality.
Planted 3 seeds all 3 germinated. I will seperate them for 3 plants. Cannot say how they taste as just started on this journey.
I got nearly 100% germination rate on these seeds.
100% germination plants are growing beautifully!! These are the best tomato plants ever! Will buy again next year!
We planted five seeds in five die pattern in 12 x 2.5" starter pots because we suspected finicky germination rate, but much to our surprise 53 of the 60 seeds came up! We gave four seedlings to family and pricked the remaining 49 out and everyone is doing very well in its own pot. Grade A seeds in our opinion! We love MIGardener!
