Germination

Took a little longer to germinate, compared to other butterfly weed. Also some germinated much sooner then others.

Monarch magnet
joe from WI wrote on December 19, 2011

Have had this plant for about 3 years now and ended up planting about 100 of them as the monarchs lay their eggs on them. My monarch population is growing every year, the only bad thing about them is they tend to get a lot of yellow I believe aphids, but they don't bother any other plants so it's ok with me.
