Monarch Butterfly Seed Collection
Monarch butterflies are a joy to have in the garden and we assembled this collection of seed varieties to both attract monarchs to your garden and to support their health. The milkweed varieties provide a critical food source for monarch butterfly caterpillars and the flowers are varieties that the monarchs rely on for nectar.
The collection includes:
Common Milkweed (Asclepias syriaca)- approximately 30 seeds
Swamp Rose Milkweed (Asclepias incarnata)- approximately 30 seeds
Butterfly Milkweed (Asclepias tuberosa)- approximately 30 seeds
Tithonia (Tithonia rotundifolia)- approximately 50 seeds
Zinnia (Zinnia elegans)- approximately 100 seeds
Cleome (Cleome hassleriana)- approximately 50 seeds
Orange Cosmos (Cosmos sulphureus)- approximately 50 seeds
Black Knight Scabiosa (Scabiosa atropurpurea)- approximately 30 seeds
New England Aster (Aster novae-angliae)- approximately 50 seeds
Sunflower (Helianthus annuus)- approximately 30 seeds
The collection of ten seed packets comes in a cloth gift bag and we include a pamphlet with a little history of each variety and a description of where we harvested the parent seed.
We hope this seed collection brings many monarch butterflies to your garden. Happy growing!
