Common Milkweed (Asclepias syriaca) is one of the most iconic native plants in Virginia, and that's for good reason! It’s one of several milkweed varieties that serve as the SOLE HOST PLANTS for Monarch butterfly caterpillars and red milkweed beetles (Tetraopes tetrophthalmus), both of whom feed on the leaves of the plant🐛 Thankfully, red milkweed beetles are herbivores that eat only milkweed, and pose no threat to monarchs or their eggs/larvae, so you do not need to worry about removing them f

Asclepias Flowers
Asclepias rubra, Purple Savanna Milkweed!This species, one of 21 native Asclepias in Florida, is found only in the very western counties of the Panhandle. It has a strange distribution in the Eastern US - disjunct populations in Texas/Louisana, FL panhandle & S.

It’s also relatively tall - some individuals reach up to

Asclepias nectar- the perfect summer time beverage….if you’re a monarch butterfly! 🦋Many pollinators will feed on the nectar and pollen of Asclepias tuberosa, but monarchs also need this plant as a starter home for their young. Monarch caterpillars can only feed on Asclepias (milkweed) plants. Our horticulturists grow milkweed in many of our gardens to provide this critical source of habitat. 🎥: Michael Miller, Horticulturist #MonarchButterfly #Asclepisa #MonarchWaystation #SmithsonianGardens

Monarch caterpillars feed exclusively on the leaves of milkweed, the only host plant for this iconic butterfly species. As such, milkweed is critical for the survival of monarchs. Without it, they cannot complete their life cycle and their populations decline. The blooms are a beautiful addition to the garden. | Garden Naturally Group
