Caution – Some nurseries are selling the non-native Tropical Milkweed (Asclepias curassavica) as a suitable host plant for Monarch larvae. Recent research indicates that planting the non-native variety might actually be harmful to Monarch populations as the Tropical Milkweed blooms at a different time and can throw off the Monarch egg laying cycle. If helping butterflies and pollinators is your goal please stick with native wildflowers.
