You won’t be surprised to learn the Butterfly Weed (otherwise known as Butterfly Milkweed) is critical to the monarch butterfly survival, which has plummeted in North America. By planting Hellow Yellow Butterfly Weed in your own garden you can help these beautiful insects. Prized for its flat-topped clusters of golden yellow flowers it blooms continuously throughout the summer. Unlike other milkweeds there is no milky sap. Use often in dried flower arrangements.
