Description: Untitled DocumentStoreFeedbackFollow UsCommon MilkweedOur Common Milkweed seed has been sustainably wild-harvested from private fields that have not been contaminated by pollution such as herbicides, insecticides or any chemical fumigates/sprays. We process our seeds entirely by hand, ensuring premium quality seed with high germination rates. Common Milkweed is native to much of the United States. This perennial wildflower grows to about 2 to 4 feet tall, depending on environmental conditions. Common Milkweed can be found growing in dry areas such as open fields, roadsides, farmland, wooded areas, and prairies. It displays long-lasting clusters of medium sized dome-shaped light pink/purple flowers. The sturdy stems are shades of green and flowers will branch off sectionally going up the stem, allowing for multiple flower heads on one plant. New plants can sprout from underground root rhizomes or shed from seed pods in the fall; these 2 to 4 inch prickly green seed pods release silky-tailed seeds which are dispersed by the wind. You may allow plants to self-seed in the landscape if desired, or just remove seed pods before they split open in the fall. These low-maintenance plants perform well on dry sites that have clay, sand, loam or average soils and are drought tolerant once established. Common Milkweed is also deer resistant. We have supplied Milkweed seeds all throughout North America since 2015. Our passion is rooted in holistic land management, regenerative agriculture, permaculture and organic farming. We very much appreciate and honor the role that the Monarch butterfly plays in our ecosystem, as pollinators and as a species – and you should too! We continue to receive support from all over the country; ranging from nature parks to conservationist projects, school and educational programs, and home gardeners. Our Common Milkweed seeds will help you attract Monarch Butterflies and other pollinators such as bumblebees, native honeybees, hummingbirds, unique butterfly species and other insects that are beneficial to your garden or eco-landscape!Seed Quantity NOTE: To conserve resources we combine all orders of duplicate seed quantities of the same variety into one pack.
