Asclepias Butterfly Weed is the absolute king of the pollinator garden. This native powerhouse stays a compact 1 foot tall, making it an ideal choice for the front of your flower beds, where you can easily spot the Monarch butterflies it famously supports. It thrives in the most intense full sun our mountain climate can throw at it, and once those deep taproots are established, it is incredibly drought-tolerant and tough. The best part for those of us living near open spaces? Its milky sap makes it naturally deer and rabbit-resistant, so the critters will pass it by while the bees and butterflies feast on those brilliant, tangerine-orange flower clusters. Planting this isn't just about adding a splash of vibrant color; it’s about providing a vital sanctuary for nature right outside your back door.
