Butterfly weed- Asclepia Tuberosa
Butterflies will flock to this "weed". It is very similar to the milkweed you see growing wild in Ontario northland. You will also notice the Monarch Butterfly is good friends with these plants.
Asclepia grows 24-36 inches high and spreads 15-18 inches. Plant in full sun in any type of soil and cut back to ground level at the end of season. Blooms all summer
