🌿🌿🌿 30 MILKWEED Options for your Garden❓
Milkweed Madness '25 Starts NOW❣️
Good Sunday RAISEr ,
March is the month of Milkweed Madness where we discuss all things milkweed to get you excited (and ready!) for the 2025 growing season...and the return of monarchs! 🦋🦋🦋
Over the past few years, there have been so many questions about milkweed, this event now takes us through the end of April.
Milkweed is the cornerstone to your successful butterfly garden, so we’ll explore all of your best options for raising monarchs, and also discussing fast growing tips.
First, a quick message from our sponsor…
Could you pay $10,000 for a pet emergency?
Unexpected vet bills can be a financial burden, with some procedures costing $10,000+. Without coverage, you’d have to cover these expenses out of pocket.
Pet insurance companies can offer up to 90% reimbursement for covered claims, providing peace of mind and protection against expensive medical bills.
Don’t let unexpected vet bills stress you out. Protect your pet and your finances with top-rated pet insurance.
Shall we begin❓🌿🌿🌿
Milkweed Madness 2025
To kick of MWM '25 we'll start with a reminder that there are many, many, milkweed species that can support garden monarchs, both as host plants for caterpillars, and as nectar plants for butterflies and other beneficial pollinators.
Our milkweed for monarchs page features 30 different milkweed varieties and provides a good overview to the wide world of milkweed:
