Water softener prices typically range from below $1,000 to almost $10,000. Luckily, the going rate for water softeners is between the $1,000 and $2,500 range, and you can find most of the good quality models at these prices.
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.
