Monarch Oasis Asclepias Collection
Monarch Oasis Asclepias Collection
Asclepias Is Vital to the Survival of Monarch Butterflies
Deer resistant and drought tolerant, the plant's stout stems yield fragrant clusters of tiny, star-shaped flowers and plenty of thick leaves. Use milkweed to add beauty to butterfly and cottage gardens, prairies and meadows. Flowers and seedpods, which form after the blooms, add colour and substance to dried arrangements.
This collection includes 3 each of Soulmate, Hello Yellow, Orange Glory Flower and Ice Ballet.
Soulmate: Yields fragrant, 2" clusters of cherry-pink blooms with white centres. Ideal for adding vivacious colour to borders, decorative containers and cutting gardens. Asclepias incarnata
Hello Yellow: Its first 2-2½" clusters of golden-yellow flowers for the season arrive in early summer to brighten borders, cutting gardens and containers. Easily grown. Asclepias tuberosa
Orange Glory Flower: Bears masses of wonderfully fragrant, bright orange flower heads rich with nectar. Beautifies any garden, border, naturalized planting or bouquet. Asclepias tuberosa
Ice Ballet: The mildly scented, small, snow-white flowers it produces are set off by the deep green foliage. After the blooms appear, attractive, 4" seedpods form. Asclepias incarnata

Shipping
Breck's times its shipments from Holland so that bulbs and bareroots arrive at the proper planting time (depending on climatic conditions) for each area of North America. To promote optimum stress protection in transit and your success in the garden, bareroot perennials are kept in the ground in our nurseries until fully dormant. In the Fall, these plants tend to arrive at the later end of the shipping window below.
We will pack and ship your order based on the following schedules. The type of product you order or the weather may affect the anticipated shipping schedule below. Based on the contents of your order we always strive to ship your order complete, and as early as possible in the planting season to allow for the best root development once planted.
