I can t believe quickly your plants took off! I’ve started some from seed and they are growing so slow out side . Can’t wait to propagate milkweed .
That was so easy! I love how you made 28 days magically happen within 15 minutes 🤓
Yay! Thank you!
I love, love, LOVE butterfly weed. We lived in east Tennessee during the 90s and any drive down a rural road in summertime was a feast for the eyes. Bright pops of orange all along roads.
That sounds lovely 😊 I've never seen butterfly weed in the wild.
Perfect, a neighbor just put a huge pile of them, can't wait to try this.
Remember, especially with milkweed, always **grow native**. Asclepias tuberosa or incarnata or perennis or all 3. Monarchs munching tropical/scarlet milkweed (Asclepias currasavica) outside of their breeding grounds in Mexico ALTER their breeding behavior and can also cause a buildup of OE. Even if you cut it back, it's highly invasive and who can say if the far off places the seeds can get to will have someone to cut it back. Plant responsibly
Very true!
Yes. Very important for the health of the monarchs to plant native. Check with one of the monarch organizations online or your local agricultural extension to find the native species for your area.
Thank you for this video. Very helpful. I recently found some butterfly milk weed on a friends farm and I wanted some on my farm because I only seem to find common milk weed in my woods and I wanted to add more diversity. This information was great on how to do that. Thank you again and I will be checking out more of your videos.
Very informative. Going to try it.
ur adorable this was super helpful!
Thank you!
Wow awesome video with all the updates in one thank you!
You are welcome! 🥰
Short but sweet!! TFS. 👍😊✌
Thank you 😄
This is awesome, very helpful! 💓
that’s a fine bucket you have there
Love ur videos ♡
I'm headed to the yard right now to try this😁Growww🏵️
Yes 🙌 Do it!! 😄
@@WildFloridian I potted 5 stems... and now we wait❣️
👍beautiful channel.congratulations
Omg. So easy,,,,,lol,,,,, going tomorrow to green island gardens,,to pick up plants for my 5 moth old garden,,,hahahaha
Isn't it?!? You can do it! What amazing timing 😄
THANK YOU ! ❤
You're welcome 😊
I'm excited to try this! I'm just afraid to buy potting soil because I don't know how to tell if it has systematic pesticides in it. I'm new to gardening
Wonderful. I've done a lot of propagating from cuttings this year. But I haven't done any on my milkweeds.
Can't wait to hear about your results. And HUGE thank you! I just got the package you sent me. I will definitely include in a video and shout you out. I really appreciate you taking the time to share 🥰😄🥰
@@WildFloridian hopefully it arrived in good shape. I enjoy sharing my garden.
You made it look so easy to start plants from cuttings. Thank you. I wonder can you grow strawberries from cuttings or do you need seeds?
You can do both! I'm no expert on strawberries but will be doing testing this year.
I use transparent plastic bags for rooting cuttings. This way I can see exactly whether the cuttings have rooted or not.
Awesome… is it the same for common milkweed? Thanks
I wasn't sure you could do that. A few weeks ago, I bought a plant and during planting I broke a piece, stuck it in the ground...now I'll go check😄👍(I forgot, duh)
Yes! It's amazing how fast they can grow in the warm months! Go check on your free plant! 🌱 🥰😂
@@WildFloridian Jackie, it's growing!! 👍👏👏❤️
I'll use your method for next time bc I didn't know how many nodes to bury in the ground. I love your videos and the support of your viewers. I'm very grateful, blessings to all🪴💙🪴❤️🪴💜🙏🙏🙏
Awesome. You did this with asclepias tuberosa. Would it work with swamp milkweed as easily? What time of year should this be done, is June too late?
Hi Jacqueline! Thank you for your awesome videos! I just planted some milkweed next to my veggie garden. Now I wonder if the aphids that will come will attack the veggie plants. Should I move them? Thank you.
Actually may pull them away. I can’t think of the last time I’ve seen aphids on the veggies. I know there are other exotic plants people use as sacrifice plants… and I remember thinking 🤔 I wonder if that is what the milkweed is doing for my garden.
The golden aphids will only be on milkweed and not on any other crop from my 10 years experience.🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
New to Florida and it’s climate.
I am getting yellow leaves with brown spots on my leaves.
Can you give me suggestions on how to amend this?
My Asclepias tuberosa never produces seeds. I have been wanting to propagate it but was doubtful about taking cuttings. My showy milkweed produces lots of seeds and seedlings as well as runners.
Should they be left in shade or full sun?
How did you transplant them into your garden?
When u cut them does the mother plant branch?
My Milkweed blooms are being eaten by little bugs before they bloom so there are now flowers for the Butterflies. How do I stop this without hurting the butterflies as well?
Between the milkweed bugs and the caterpillars... getting milkweed flowers can be challenging. I mix my milkweed with other native wildflowers, like Coreopsis. This provides consistent food for the butterflies while the caterpillars and milkweed bugs eat the flowers. Right now is a great time for goldenrod which is critical for monarch migration. If you are really bugged by the bugs 😂... you can squish by hand. Any chemicals or soapy water will potentially harm your caterpillars. Hope that helps. Happy gardening!
@@WildFloridian I figured and I have not intervened but I just want a happy place for the Monarch's and those little bug's are messing it all up! Such is life... Fingers crossed that some natural predator finds them and takes them out for me.
What size pots are those? 4 inch?
That doesn't look anything like the A.tuberosa I just found on the roadside. Maybe mine's a local ecotype? No nodes like that, and the stems aren't nearly as thick or glossy. Instead, they're hairy. Same bright orange flowers and leaf shape, though, so whatever I found is gonna get stuck in the garden even if it isn't A.tuberosa! :D
I have a small patch of butterfly milkweed and they look like you described. This looks quite different! I wonder if it turned out to be something unexpected when it got bigger.
