This is a true gem for attracting butterflies to your garden with its vibrant clusters of bright orange flowers that bloom throughout the summer. Imagine your yard alive with the flutter of wings as Monarchs, Swallowtails, and other beauties flock to these nectar-rich blooms. Growing to a manageable size of 1-2 feet tall and wide, it's a perfect fit for borders, cottage gardens, or wildflower meadows.
Plant your Milkweed in a sunny spot that receives at least six hours of direct sunlight each day. Once established, it's wonderfully drought-tolerant, making it well-suited to our Arizona climate. And good news for those concerned about browsing critters – deer tend to leave Butterfly Weed alone.
To give your Milkweed the best start, amend your soil with Watters Premium Mulch at planting time. This will help with drainage, which is important for this native plant. While it doesn't typically need a lot of fertilizer, a spring application of Watters Flower Power can encourage even more of those brilliant orange blooms that the butterflies adore. Get ready for a summer filled with vibrant color and the enchanting dance of butterflies in your garden!
