Asclepias Tropical Milkweed Seeds

Asclepias aka Tropical Milkweed Monarch Butterfly Host Plant Flower Seeds

This is a popular host plant for the Monarch butterflies. Tropical Milkweed grows and blooms year round in warmer climates. It is a perennial plant in zones 8+. In lower/colder zones can grow as an annual. Flowers are red with orange centers. Typically I start seeing Monarch caterpillars feeding on this host plant starting in October. By February these plants are covered in caterpillars.
