Review: These seeds are the real deal and they grow quickly - In my neck of the woods, we have an invasive bug called lantern flies that really destroyed plants. I spent last summer swatting the things trying to kill them, but there’s too many to keep doing that. I read that milkweed plants will attract butterflies, and lantern flies, but it kills them lantern flies. So I planted these seeds and within a week I got results. I will wait another month until the plants get bigger and I will plant them outside. I’m very happy with these seats. They were worth the price and I can’t believe how many are growing and will be growing. I highly recommend them.
Review: So far, so good - 80%+ of the seeds produced sprouts and everything seems healthy so far. All the seeds look good - no obvious duds or deformities. I like that this particular variety of milkweed is native to my location, which apparently is important for the Monarch's health. Apparently, local-sourced seed is superior, but I'm doing this out of season and the price is excellent for these seeds. (BTW, xerces.org has a ton of great info on everything about milkweeds and Monarchs.) Here's what worked for me (I'm a complete noob at this, so some of this may be overkill, backwards, or completely wrong): + Soak the seeds for 90 minutes, separate them out on a moist paper towel, seal them in a Ziplock, and leave them in the fridge for a month. + The Jiffy Strips 'N Greenhouse (TS50H) makes for a very simple, no-hassle system that include the little peat holders and a covered tray to trap the humidity and keep things warm. For soil, I used what I had on hand: a palm, cactus, and citrus mix with about 10% additional perlite. + Plant each seed under just a tiny bit of soil - like 1/4". The packet had 74 seeds, so it fit the 36 peat pot in the Jiffy system by using 2 separated seeds pot. + Apparently, the seeds need to see daylight - I used a $6 Sylvania grow light bulb set on a timer for 12 hours/day and the tray was getting some indirect sunlight too. + For water, I started with wet soil and used a spray bottle every other day...just enough to keep everything moist. The lid help a lot with this. + 5 days after planting, the first sprout popped up. + 10 days after planting, 2/3rds of the seeds had sprouted. There were a few seeds that tried to grow upside-down or were too deep in the soil. + By 2 weeks, 3/4 of the seeds were going. No new sprouts since then. + The picture is almost a month in. So far, so good.

## Features

- Appearance: This bushy perennial features vibrant orange (sometimes yellow or red-orange) flowers in large, flat-topped clusters atop hairy stems, with narrow, lance-shaped green leaves and no milky sap unlike other milkweeds.
- Height and Growth: It typically grows 1-3 feet tall in upright clumps, forming a low, mounded profile from a deep tuberous root system that makes it drought-tolerant once established.
- Habitat and Conditions: Native to eastern and southern North America, it thrives in dry to medium, well-drained soils such as sand, loam, or rocky areas, preferring full sun and tolerating poor, dry conditions exceptionally well.
- Pollinator Benefits: A favorite for butterflies, it serves as a larval host plant for monarch caterpillars and provides abundant nectar for adult butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and other pollinators.
- Quality: All seeds packaged by Seed Needs are intended for the current and the following growing seasons. All seeds are stored in a temperature controlled facility that is free of significant amounts of moisture.
- Quantity: Seed Needs offers generous quantities. You can share with friends and family, or you can save the extra seeds until the following season, if properly stored.
- Packets: Each seed packet displays an artful illustration of the variety to be grown, as well as detailed seed sowing information on the reverse side. They measure 3.5" wide by 5" tall.
- Promise: Seed Needs will never knowingly supply GMO based seed products. The vast majority of our seeds are open pollinated & heirloom, with the exception of a few hybrids.
- Germination: Seed Needs packets contain some of the freshest seed available. Direct from the growers. If sown correctly, you will begin seeing results in only a matter of days.
- Freshness: All Seeds Are Packaged In Tear Resistant And Moisture Resistant Packaging. This Keeps The Seeds A Whole Lot Fresher Than The Competitions Selection!
