Wildflowers - Milkweed Seeds
The Milkweed family is known as Asclepias to botanists. These species have become very popular over the past few years because of their unique trait of being a food source for Monarch Butterflies. Wherever Milkweeds are growing in our fields, somehow the Monarchs find them, and there is hardly a time when the butterflies are not fluttering around them. There is a good bit of variability within this genus, so there will surely be something that will work for your location, whether it is sand or swamp, or something in between. We carry everything from Common Milkweed seeds to Purple Milkweed. The Purple Milkweed is probably the rarest form of Milkweed seed that we have for sale, and the bulk stock that we get from time to time is quickly sold out.

Blood Flower Seeds
Asclepias curassavica
Also known as tropical milkweed, these brilliant red and yellow blossoms explode with color in their first growing season. Although this species is a member of the Milkweed family, recent studies have shown that it actually may be detrimental to the Monarch Butterfly, especially in southern climates where the plants can survive year-round. The plants can harbor diseases that harm the Monarch, and disrupt their normal migratory patterns. Please only use this plant as an annual, and do not let it winter over!Quick ViewxBlood Flower Seeds
