Description: Canada Common Milkweed, Common Milkweed, Asclepias Syriaca, Native Milkweeds, Butterfly Flower, Monarch butterfly Caterpillar food plant 3-5' feet tall, Full SunBlooms July to AugustZones 3-8 Common Milkweed (Asclepias syriaca) is the host plant of the monarch butterfly and an important nectar source for bees and butterflies. They have very beautiful flower with large leathery leaves slightly fuzzy underneath and fairly smooth on top. The Common milkweed has thick white sap which is toxic. Milkweed is an eco-friendly staple for butterfly conservation, especially for the beloved Monarch butterfly. In addition, milkweed is the ONLY source of foods for many Caterpillars and provides a wonderful habitat for all sorts of animals. Once the flowers die back in later August, they produce large spiky pods. Now as we transition from summer and autumn, milkweeds start to produce seeds in pods. Seeds are packed in Pods like scale and will open up to let the seeds scatter into the wind to their new homes. Per sale: 100 fresh seeds collected fresh from Ontario, Canada 2024.
