Masses of glowing color! The Classic "Butterfly Weed"--Bloom-Heavy and Super Easy to Grow! Big orange blooms welcome summer, attracting butterflies and gardeners by the drove!

So floriferous that you can pick all you want and still have more than enough for the butterflies to enjoy! This plant is a trouble-free wonder in the sunny garden, blooming unchecked through the most severe heat and drought. Winter-hardy as well, the Butterfly Weed returns for years to repeat its glorious show! Asking only sun and plenty of it, Butterfly Weed laughs at heat and drought, survives winter unscathed, and is long-lived. It reaches 2 feet tall and about 2 feet wide, with a lush, rangy form that complements other plantings nicely. And the blooms are super for cutting!
