Description
Monarch Butterflies need our help! Plant our Eastern Monarch Refuge Plant Collection in your garden to support endangered Monarch butterflies. As development across the country has reduced their natural habitat, gardeners can play an important role in helping their population rebound. How? By planting native plants like Milkweed (Asclepias), their host plant, which are essential for their survival. Milkweed leaves provide the food that Monarch caterpillars need to grow. In addition to Milkweed, planting native nectar plants that bloom all season helps to feed adult Monarch butterflies, fueling their long migrations each spring and fall.
Milkweed, Black Eyed Susan, Aster, and Bee Balm all have extended bloom times to offer reliable nectar sources. This garden is best for states east of the Rocky Mountains.
*Plants are subject to change due to availability. If we make substitutions, we feature plants with similar attributes suitable to the collection design.
