Description
Pre stratified common milkweed seed. (asclepias syriaca). Common milkweed is a familiar plant for butterfly pollinator gardens. Adaptable plant. Host for monarch butterflies. Can be agressive once established.
Most native milkweed seeds need a cold treatment (stratification) for best germination. These seeds have already been stratified. However, they germinate quickly and will need to be planted (indoors or out-keeping in mind milkweed seedlings can be frost sensitive) immediately upon arrival and depending on time in transit, may already show signs of germination.
