Butterfly weed

Butterfly weed is a lovely wildflower that is perfect for attracting butterflies to your garden. The plant produces vibrant orange flowers that bloom in midsummer and attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees. It grows to be about 2-3 feet tall and gives off a slightly sweet fragrance. The seeds generally have a germination time of 14-21 days and prefer well-draining soil with plenty of sun. This plant is easy to grow and is a great way to add color and life to your garden.
