Butterfly Weed (Asclepias tuberosa) earns its name every summer when monarchs, swallowtails, and a parade of pollinators descend on its clusters of vivid orange flowers. This native milkweed species, sometimes called Orange Milkweed or Pleurisy Root, is one of the showiest wildflowers you can grow and one of the most important for supporting butterfly populations.

A Pollinator Powerhouse

Unlike its aggressive cousin Common Milkweed, Butterfly Weed stays in a tidy clump, reaching just 1-2 feet tall and wide. From early summer through late summer, flat-topped clusters of brilliant orange blooms create a landing pad for butterflies and serve as a critical nectar source. For monarch butterflies specifically, this plant is more than just a food source: it's a host plant where monarchs lay their eggs and caterpillars feed on the foliage as they develop.

Built for Tough Conditions

Butterfly Weed thrives where other perennials struggle. Its deep taproot, which can extend several feet into the soil, allows it to access moisture during droughts and survive in lean, rocky, or sandy soils. Once established after the first season, this plant requires virtually no maintenance. It tolerates heat, humidity, and neglect with equal grace. The trade-off for this toughness is patience: Butterfly Weed emerges late in spring, often weeks after other perennials have leafed out, and takes a full season to establish its root system before putting on its best show.

Landscape Uses

Plant Butterfly Weed in native gardens, prairie-style borders, rock gardens, or xeriscapes where its drought tolerance shines. The orange blooms combine beautifully with purple coneflowers, black-eyed Susans, and ornamental grasses. Mass plantings create a dramatic ribbon of color that draws pollinators from across the neighborhood. This plant also works in meadow plantings or naturalized areas where its self-seeding habit is welcome rather than a nuisance.

Four-Season Interest

Beyond the showy summer blooms, Butterfly Weed offers ornamental seed pods in fall that split open to release silky-tufted seeds. These pods add texture to the late-season garden and provide food for goldfinches and other seed-eating birds. The foliage may develop russet tones before dying back completely in winter. Leave the stems standing through winter for structural interest and cut back in early spring before new growth emerges.

Why This Plant Belongs in Your Garden

If you care about supporting pollinators, especially threatened monarch butterflies, Butterfly Weed is essential. It provides both nectar for adult butterflies and foliage for monarch caterpillars, making it a complete life-cycle plant. The fact that it requires zero fertilizer, minimal water after establishment, and no pest management makes it one of the easiest native perennials you can grow. Deer and rabbits leave it alone, and once that taproot is down, this plant will return reliably for decades.

Feels great after cheap work soap hand washes
Size: 11 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This stuff is great. I reapply ALL the time because I have it at work.I wash my hands frequently and the soap at the work is very harsh, cheap, and generally just terrible on the skin.I use this after every wash and it leaves my hands and arms soft and moisturized. I have also received compliments on how nice my office smells after I apply it. While that might make it sound as if the scent is very strong, it isn't. It's nice, and lingers for a bit, but it is not overpowering or overwhelming. The tub goes a long way, and the container at my desk has lasted for months, and a little goes a long way. I appreciate that the container seals well and doesn't leak. Sometimes when I take other lotions on the go with me, I worry that the little flap top will open up and make a mess. That is not a problem with this jar AT ALL. It is easy to close and stays closed, even when I throw it in my bag and then throw my bag around a bit in transport.
