I ordered two of these milkweeds to arrive in the spring. They arrived, I planted them, watered them, and pretty much forgot about them. I was delighted to see the lovely pink blossoms! These plants bloomed all summer, just now going to seed. I’m really taken with them. Nice addition to butterfly garden!
I had gotten this last year because I had heard about Monarchs dwindling in their numbers and possibly becoming extinct so I thought I would try it out. They LOVED this plant and I was able to help 14 caterpillars that I found on the 2 plants I had fotten, grow and release them to butterflies! Soulmate is coming back up again, it's SO easy to take care of and the beautiful flowers that bloom just make this a remarkable plant to have in my garden along with my regular milkweed. SO WORTH EVERY PENNY!
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.
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.
I received several of these plants bare root in well packaged containers.
