Product description
Butterfly watching is profoundly beneficial, both physically and emotionally. While Hundredfold can’t guarantee monarchs will come and lay eggs on one’s swamp milkweed. We are confident that when the flowers bloom; they will attract at least one kind of butterflies to one’s garden, for the sweet nectar. Swamp milkweed is a must-have flower for any butterfly gardens.
