should I stake my butterfly weed or clip?
Comments (3)One for cutting, one against! Anyone want to break the tie? (LOL) I'm going out to look at it in a while, will decide then. I'm afraid I'll have to cut it. At least the butterfly weed doesn't look as bad as the peonies do after the rain we just had. Now that's really sad. I really need to find a way to support those peonies better than a ring....See Moreany signs of Butterfly weed coming up?
Comments (9)Thanks for the picture Karen, now I know what to look for. I could have disturbed it though planting out some of my new WS babies, I don't have any markers in my gardens. I guess I should start doing that....See MoreWhen will my perennial butterfly weed (asclepias) come up?
Comments (20)I would give them a little more time. They are slow here even in my zone 7/8. I love the plant (tuberosa) even if it isn’t the Monarch’s favorite. Such sturdy, cheerful orange flowers that are long lasting in my garden. I have them paired with hot colors of Agastache, another late bloomer for me. i will keep my fingers crossed for yours....See MoreWhat are these caterpillars on my butterfly weed?
