Save #Monarch #Butterfly! Plant #Milkweed! #butterflies

Monarch butterflies are attracted to gardens with a milkweed bush. The milkweed bush is a host plant for Monarch butterflies to lay their eggs. The beautiful orange blooms will add bright orange color to your garden! For beginner gardeners, milkweed multiplies rapidly! To keep it in a confined area, pick off the seedpods that sprout in late Summer/early Fall.

Milkweed’s orange blossoms add bright color to your garden all Summer long! The blooms are absolutely beautiful!

We saw a Monarch Butterfly feeding on our Sedum Matrona at lunchtime! To attract beautiful Monarch butterflies, plant flowers with the nectar they love, such as Sedum!

We have discovered that Monarch butterflies love Zinnia nectar! To learn how to grow Zinnias from seed, click here.
