Growing well
I purchased two of these for my rain garden - one came up within a couple weeks but the other has not. I look forward to watching it grow and am excited for its quick growth so far.
Ordered these so long ago I forgot where I planted it. I became very aware which of my plants was the milkweed when I came out to find 10 beautiful happy, healthy monarch caterpillars munching away! I was so excited I tried to get more at a local plant place but couldn't get anything like this and was told people are buying up milkweed. I am determined to find my milkweed for my lil guys, but this has honestly been so great and I can't wait for them to turn in to butterflies. Great plant, grew healthy in California and attracted monarchs.
I ordered 2. They were tiny when they arrived, but in just a couple months they are about 18” tall. Butterflies haven’t noticed them yet, but that may be normal. I’m excited to see what they continue to do.
Of all the bare roots I ordered, this one is growing the best. It's been in the ground for 2 months and is already ~2ft tall. I'm still waiting for flowers, but it's a very healthy-looking plant. Looking forward to attracting butterflies to my garden.
