So i happily planted Asclepias curassavica this year, not knowing the above !! I will pull them out immediately. So glad i saw this.
Thank you for removing them!
For those in the Tarflower chapter, Ive consistently seen a good supply of incarnata and perrenis at Green Isle Gardens.
Yes, they do stay well-stocked!
This was so comprehensive! Thank you Lily and Val! 😄
Thank you so much! And you're welcome 😁
Great presentation! I really appreciate you putting this out and sharing your immense knowledge. I collected some native butterfly milkweed seed on a hike last year but had no luck getting it to germinate in the yard. I'll try again this year.
Thank you! Isn't Lilly awesome. Good luck getting native milkweed started in your yard.
It is so hard finding native milkweed. I was sold two giant milkweed as an option. The nursery is listed I'm the FANN website and turns out is not a good milkweed option. So frustrating. Can't even find a native firebush in my area. Just drove 2 hours to another nursery only to find more tropical milkweed 😮💨
Thank you for this very informative video! I am in Broward county, south Florida, and could not find native milkweed for sale anywhere. I ordered seeds and successfully started: A. incarnata, A. tuberosa, and A. Verticillata. The swamp milkweed so far is the slowest. It is weird to to graduate then from liners to 4” pots, when they have that long taproot! I’m hoping to get some blooms this summer, and will definitely cut them all back around thanksgiving if they don’t naturally dieback.
You are so welcome! Great job in getting all of them to germinate and grow - not everyone has success early on. Are you linked up with the Broward Chapter? They have a member, Keith, who grows and gives away milkweed.
Please watch 8:59 - 12:30 if you are just skipping around in the video! Thank you for this post - p.s. Sandhill (humistrata) was found as far south as Collier County and is now believed to be extripated as it hasn't been found since the early 90s
Thanks! Just clipped the announcements off the front of the video so those timestamps might be a bit off. Good point about A. humistrata.
Hard to hear this presentation. Can you fix the audio?
