Florida Butterfly Database Project including over 102 species of butterflies in Florida.
There are 21 native milkweed species in Florida and eight native species in south Florida (see sidebar). While some of these species may not be quite as showy as A. curassavica, they work perfectly well as monarch attractants.or example, while butterflyweed (A. tuberosa) has tougher leaves than scarlet milkweed (and in fact monarchs need to eat more of this plant than other species to get the nutrients they need), caterpillars that eat only A. tuberosa grow just as well as those that eat other species including A. curassavica.
