Description
Monarch butterflies need our help and now we can provide it, AND, add a beautiful perennial collection to our gardens. Our 5-plant Monarch Magic Collection includes two milkweed species, providing essential food and support for Monarch caterpillars. Additionally, 2 late summer blooming Aster varieties will provide needed nectar for traveling butterflies. Lastly, Texas Blazing Star (Liatris) is a true butterfly magnet and a favorite of Monarchs, supplying nectar during late summer to fall. These native perennials are easy-to-grow, long-lived, drought tolerant garden plants that will add natural beauty and enjoyment as you watch the butterflies fill up!
