Grow Milkweed From Seed

Hello, fellow gardeners! If you like lots of butterflies, you should grow milkweed from seed to attract plenty of them.

If you're as passionate about attracting butterflies to your garden as I am, you’ve come to the right place. This week, let's chat about planting milkweed from seed—a surefire way to turn your garden into a buzzing hub of pollination activity.

Butterflies are not just a pretty sight. They are essential pollinators, and milkweed is one of their favorite plants. When you plant milkweed, you’re rolling out the red carpet for these beautiful creatures. Trust me, your garden will become the go-to spot for local butterflies, helping pollinate all your fruits and veggies.

David's Garden Seeds® has the following milkweed seeds for you to plant:

The best time in Texas to grow milkweed from seeds is in the fall. Milkweed seeds have to cold stratify before they will bloom. Plant them in October or November in warmer climates and they will bloom in spring. If you live in a cold climate, you will need to plant them in early spring. Check with your local county extension agent for the safest time to plant milkweed if you live up north.

Happy Veterans Day!

Isn't David so handsome as a young soldier?Isn't David so handsome as a young soldier?

Happy Veterans Day to all of the veterans out there! Thank you for your service! We appreciate you and when you let us know you are a veteran, you get a 15% discount from us. David is an Army veteran. Both of our fathers were veterans. Since it is Veterans Day, there will be no mail delivery and no mail pickup. That means your seed orders will be received a day later than anticipated. They are on their way.

I finished transplanting the last of the purple sweet potato vines that I rooted. Hopefully, they will grow nicely over the winter so we can sell them in the spring. I also rooted and planted some of the red and green coleus that we had. I will get more of that to root because it is so pretty.

Here are some of the red and purple sweet potato vine plants that I rooted and transplanted. They should be for sale in the spring.Here are some of the red and purple sweet potato vine plants that I rooted and transplanted. They should be for sale in the spring.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas and I have been singing Joy To The World all morning! I think it will look magical tonight!

We went out at sunset and things looked really great but when it got dark, we did not go back out. We should have. Maybe tomorrow night.

It was a beautiful sunset and I am glad I captured it while looking at the Christmas decorations.It was a beautiful sunset and I am glad I captured it while looking at the Christmas decorations.

So, you’ve decided to grow milkweed from seed. Great choice! Growing from seed is cost-effective and rewarding. First, let's dive into the types of milkweed, and then we'll get our hands dirty with the planting process.

There are several varieties of milkweed to choose from. Common milkweed, butterfly weed, and swamp milkweed are popular options. Each variety attracts different types of butterflies, including the beloved monarch. Hence, variety can make your garden a butterfly's paradise.

Now, where should you plant milkweed? These plants thrive in sunny spots. They love basking in the sun, so pick a location that gets six to eight hours of direct sunlight daily. Remember, happy milkweed means happy butterflies!

Timing is everything when it comes to planting milkweed seeds. The best time to plant is in late fall. This allows the seeds to undergo cold stratification, mimicking their natural wintering-over in the wild. This process enhances germination come spring.

If you're eager to start planting earlier, don't fret. You can simulate cold stratification by refrigerating the seeds for a few weeks. Place them in a damp paper towel inside a plastic bag—budget-friendly and efficient!

Good morning. I opened the door to take Ethel out and it is foggy all over, not just in bands like we usually get. It looks pretty cool. I am glad I do not have to drive in it to get to work. I hope our people get here safely today.

Our new small spring seed set will actually be put together today. I had to revamp it last night as we had duplicate seeds in both it and the new small fall seed set which is already made. Everything is different now except for the two bush beans because the Blue Lake 274 and the Contender are the best green bush beans for both seasons.

I have been working on orders and on the websites all day long. The fog burned off fairly quickly this morning. I did some planting before the orders.

Matt sent three more chickens on to freezer camp today. I am not sure of the exact count because I have not seen him since early this morning.

David asked me to put some HTML code up on the website. Hahahaha! I could not find any place to put up any HTML code. I looked it up online but it was above my pay grade. David will have to pay someone for help. SBI has a place to put HTML code so it is easy but I don't know how people with Shopify websites (like we now have) do anything with their sites. I know it is user friendly for customers but there is nothing friendly about it for the people building the sites.

He finally had to pay someone to fix it up and add it in for us. Of course, as usual, they will not show or tell us what they did so we can't do it...

Matt has been working on sending chickens to freezer camp all day long.Matt has been working on sending chickens to freezer camp all day long.

It is now 3:45pm and Matt is still working on sending chickens to freezer camp. He did seven of them today. It is a lot of work. David just told me we can't do it anymore because he cannot afford to have Matt not doing what David needs to be done. We will see.

After work, I made ramen noodles because we had to leave to attend a meeting. After the meeting, we got gas and picked up dinner. We didn't get home from the meeting until 10pm. It was a long one...

I took a few photos late tonight from the truck. Here is one. I think it looks good.I took a few photos late tonight from the truck. Here is one. I think it looks good.

Now, let’s plant those seeds! The first step to grow milkweed from seed is to prepare the soil by breaking it up and removing any weeds or debris. Milkweed isn't picky about soil types, but it does prefer well-drained spots. Add some compost if your soil needs a nutrient boost.

Sow the seeds directly onto the soil surface. Milkweed seeds need sunlight to germinate, so press them lightly into the soil but don’t cover them entirely. A light pat will ensure good soil-seed contact.

Once your seeds are sowed, water them gently. You don’t want to wash the seeds away, so use a gentle spray or a watering can with a sprinkler head. Keep the soil moist until you notice seedlings sprouting.

While waiting for your milkweed to grow, let's chat about why attracting butterflies is crucial. We love butterflies, but beyond their beauty, they are vital pollinators. Milkweed provides food and habitat, encouraging them to visit your garden regularly.

As the seeds germinate, you’ll begin to see seedlings. Exciting, right? Keep the area weed-free and continue watering as necessary. This is the start of creating a welcoming environment for butterflies.

As your milkweed grows, it will become a hotspot for caterpillars and butterflies alike. Watching them flit about in your garden is a rewarding experience, and knowing you're helping support their population is even better.

You might wonder, what else is milkweed good for? Beyond attracting butterflies and aiding pollination, it helps with erosion control and provides habitat for other beneficial insects. It's an all-around great addition to any garden.

Now that you have some healthy milkweed growing, let’s talk about harvesting seeds for next season. Collecting seeds allows you to plant milkweed year after year without extra cost.

The trees are now in my greenhouse and Matt is watering them.The trees are now in my greenhouse and Matt is watering them.

This morning started early. The air was cool and felt amazing. I was about to make breakfast when David announced that Nacho was on his way to put all of the trees into the greenhouses. After that, David and I left for the doctor's office in Pleasanton. Once that was done, we went to two different print shops for something that neither one could do. Then we hit Walmart for some groceries.

David also stopped at the meat market to get some nice steaks for this weekend for my birthday which he completely forgot about until I casually mentioned it in the Walmart parking lot. I guess I won't be getting anything special for my birthday unless I buy it myself...

We got home and carried everything in. David went to work and I got to put everything away and load the dishwasher. Since then, I have been working on orders.

A little while ago, a delivery driver parked outside the gate, walked in and up the stairs to the commercial kitchen. I went over and asked how I could help him. He wanted to use our land line because he had no service. He needed a gate code to make a delivery on another road. I explained to him that we do not have a land line.

This used to be a peanut farm so no one ever lived here. Therefore, AT&T said no when we asked about getting a land line because the telephone lines were not already here. We have cell phones with one bar. While we were talking, he got an answer from the customers giving him the gate code. He asked how to get back to San Antonio. I told him and he went on his merry way.

Matt finished off the meat birds this morning so that is done. After that, he had to get some propane and look for a tire that fits our wheelbarrow. This has been an ongoing problem for weeks.

Last week, when our bamboo trees came, Nacho planted them up at the top of the property, near the white shed. He was supposed to spread them out a bit but he left them all in a clump. Anyway, I had not been up there since they were planted so I suggested to David that we drive up there. We did and I got up to snap a few photos just as the sun was setting.

I love this bamboo sunset shot but I wish he had spread the trees out like David told him to. They were not cheap.I love this bamboo sunset shot but I wish he had spread the trees out like David told him to. The trees were not cheap and we wanted them to cover a bigger area.

After this, I air fried some chicken, mushrooms, and sliced potatoes for dinner. It was incredibly delicious!

Milkweed seeds are ready to harvest once the seed pods turn brown and start to split open. Watch out for this in late summer to early fall. It's a sign that the seeds are mature and ready to be gathered.

To harvest, gently open the pods, allowing the seeds to slip out. Milkweed seeds are attached to silky white floss. Separate the seeds by pulling them away from the floss.

Store the seeds in a cool, dry place until you're ready to plant them again. A simple envelope or jar works well; just make sure it's airtight to keep the seeds viable.

Taking care of your milkweed once it's planted is relatively straightforward. These plants are quite hardy and don't require a lot of pampering—great news for busy gardeners!

Water your milkweed during dry spells, but don't overdo it. These plants handle drought better than over watering. Too much water can lead to root rot, and we definitely don’t want that.

Milkweed isn’t typically prone to pests or diseases. However, you might see aphids from time to time. These can usually be managed with a spray of water or insecticidal soap.

In terms of fertilizing, milkweed doesn't need much. Compost in the spring is usually sufficient. Avoid over-fertilizing, as it can deter butterflies from laying eggs.

He was actually very nice and took the time to explain a few things to us so that we can possibly get a tax exemption. We have to fill out some paperwork, get some things notarized, and then apply.

As autumn rolls around, you’ll notice your milkweed entering dormancy. You can trim back the spent stems to keep your garden tidy, but leave some seed pods if you want to support local wildlife.

Let’s circle back to why we’re doing this. We need butterflies to act as pollinators. They ensure the healthy production of fruits and vegetables, as well as the continued survival of many plant species.

By growing milkweed, you’re contributing positively to the environment. You’re helping to sustain butterfly populations and, in turn, aiding biodiversity.

Let’s not forget the pure joy of seeing butterflies in your garden. They bring life and movement, creating a lively, colorful space that can be truly therapeutic.

Attract butterflies to your yard with milkweed, and you’ll be investing in the health of your garden. It’s a win-win situation for you and your local ecosystem.

Now, how about some personal anecdotes? I remember the first time I decided to grow milkweed from seed. I was amazed at how quickly the butterflies started to visit. Seeing monarch caterpillars munching away was incredibly rewarding.

One year, I had a small patch of milkweed but managed to host dozens of butterflies. It became a neighborhood attraction, drawing interest from neighbors who weren’t even into gardening.

Watching the life cycle from caterpillar to chrysalis to butterfly was like having a live-action nature documentary right in my yard. It sparked curiosity and appreciation in my friends and family.

So, there you have it, a bit of my own experience to motivate and inspire you. I hope you're excited to grow milkweed from seed and welcome more butterflies into your garden.

We had three sets of customers today and David had to come out and give a tour to a family because Matt was out running errands for David. I pulled a lot of orders and got them mailed out.

At the end of the day, Matt and I got all of my plants indoors, on trays and then I watered everything. We will need to put a new floor in next spring as well as a roof. The carpenter who built it used wafer board for the floor. It is ruined and some of it is ready to break through. I cannot believe that is what he used. I do not want to use him anymore. We used that guy quite a bit in San Antonio and several times out here. He built this so cheap. I am disgusted.

A pretty sunrise for a Saturday morning.A pretty sunrise for a Saturday morning.

I got up this morning and it was 55°. It is currently 1pm and 82°. I got all of the animals taken care of and opened the store. I unpacked boxes of CowPots and snap clamps and got them all priced. Since then, I have been filling orders. There have been no customers. That is too bad because we are having such a good sale and we have beautiful flowers for this time of year.

Well, back to pulling more orders...

The Amazon delivery driver came in to the parking lot just in time for the gate to close. I went out, got the packages, and then opened the gate so she could get back out on the road.

Then I closed the store and finished pulling the orders. I am going to do some laundry and do some cleaning up.

David and Matt made ribeyes for dinner and we watched the final Bond film. It was sad.

Have your seeds ready for next season. The cycle continues, offering even more opportunities to attract butterflies and enjoy their presence in your garden.

Why not share your newfound knowledge with friends and family? Encourage them to plant milkweed too. Together, we can create butterfly-friendly communities.

And if you're part of a local gardening club, consider organizing a community effort to plant milkweed. The impact could reach far beyond just your backyard.

Pay close attention to your milkweed’s growth each season. Note changes and maybe start a garden journal. It's a fun way to track progress and document the amazing visitors you receive.

Garden journaling aside, embrace the unpredictability of gardening. It’s a living art, after all, with surprises and delights at every turn.

Speaking of surprises, you might find that planting milkweed brings more than just butterflies. Happy pollinators like bees will also pay a visit, boosting the overall health of your garden.

After all, milkweed is food for butterflies, making it crucial to sustaining their populations. Your effort supports a larger ecological balance.

I wish I had caught the whole thing on camera!
