Butterfly weed, or milkweed, is a native American wildflower that is at home in both the wild garden and the perennial border, as a flower that attracts hummingbirds and butterflies.
Milkweed seeds are scattered over the top of moistened germinating medium in the container so they are spaced one-fourth to one-half inch apart or so that each small pot contains three or four seeds. The seeds are covered with one-half inch of the medium and misted gently.
