According to Gardens Alive! the Monarch butterfly is in desperate need of help. Its population has seen dramatic declines in the last few years and it is not bouncing back due to a lack of habitat, shortages in their food supply, and the increased use of lawn chemicals.

Get ready for the return of the Monarchs from Mexico and plant the milkweed they need!

Milkweed Seeds

**Approximately 40 seeds**

**Most have broken from their fluff, which makes it easier to direct exactly where they will be planted**

**Grows approximately 4 feet tall, produces large seed pods that burst open in the fall and allows seeds to be carried away in the wind like dandelion seeds**

**Very fragrant, self-seeds well**

**Organically grown in Northeastern Ohio**

**Attracts butterflies, is the exclusive food of the Monarch butterfly caterpillar. The butterfly itself needs high-nectar flowers to feed from such as plants in the sunflower family, specifically flowers that have an outer ring of petals with a central disk**

PLEASE do not plant anywhere lawn chemicals are used. The chemicals are bad for the milkweed and will kill the butterflies the milkweed will attract.

Planting instructions: Wait until all danger of frost is past. These plants die off each winter and re-seed themselves to come up the next year. Choose a full-sun location. Plant seeds in loose soil, a little deeper than they are thick. Keep soil moist, not soaking wet. Once they sprout, they grow quickly.

NOTE: Milkweed is a poisonous plant. Please plant with care and keep children, pets, and livestock away from it. Winning bidder assumes all responsibility for seeds and resulting plants.
