'Butterfly Weed' Milkweed 🦋🧡🌿

Native. Vibrant. A pollinator favorite.

If you want nonstop butterfly activity with bold, fiery color—this is your plant.

Butterfly Weed is a native milkweed known for its glowing orange blooms and incredible pollinator power. Unlike other milkweeds, this one thrives in drier soils while still supporting Monarchs and a wide range of beneficial insects.

This isn’t just a pop of color… it’s a magnet for life.

🐛 Monarch caterpillars rely on it to grow.
🦋 Butterflies flock to its nectar-rich blooms.
🌿 Bright color, real impact.

Don’t forget to look for this one this year in the Fiddleheads Butterfly House.
