Monarch Meadow Native Mix

Product Description:

Embrace the beauty and ecological support of "Monarch Meadow Native Mix," specifically designed for the majestic migrating monarch butterflies. This premium mix contains a strategic blend of 15% Common Milkweed (Asclepias syriaca) and 31 other monarch favorites, creating vital habitats that sustain the journey of Danaus plexippus. To enhance diversity, stabilize soil, and elevate aesthetics from fall to winter, four native grasses are integrated.

Plant this mix from mid-spring to early summer in a firm, weed-free bed at a depth of 1/4 to 1/2 inch. For optimal germination, especially in dry conditions, irrigation is recommended. Effective weed control prior to planting promotes quicker establishment. Adaptable across a wide range of soil types and environmental conditions, the mix will flourish in full sun, offering a panorama of blooms varying in shape, size, and color from just 8-10 weeks after emergence, with the spectacle intensifying as the perennials mature.
