Description
Plant spacing is based on the ultimate width of the plants. This figure is normally given as a range; for example, 3-5’. If you live in a cold climate and/or want plants to fill in more quickly, plan to space at the shorter end of the range. If you live in a warm climate, are on a limited budget, or are willing to wait longer for plants to touch, use the higher end of the range. Using the larger number is recommended when calculating distance from a building or structure. There’s really no such thing as "maximum spacing": if you don’t want your plants to touch, you can space them as far apart as you’d like. All plant spacing is calculated on center, or in other words, the centers of the plants are spaced one half of their eventual width apart:
Unless you are planting in a straight line, as you might for hedges or edging, space your plants in a staggered or zig-zag pattern for a more interesting and naturalistic look:

Milkweed plays a vital role in the Monarch butterfly lifecycle, serving as a host plant for monarch caterpillars. Without milkweed, we wouldn't have Monarchs.
So this is a follow up from my last review, I asked them not to send me another sick plant as a replacement and they most definitely sent me another plant completely infested with spider mites again. In my last review they tried to say “ We apologize you received a plant that was not up to our standards. Some factors like shipping and handling are out of our control.” it had nothing to do with shipping and handling but it’s within their greenhouse or wherever they keep these plants, there’s a very clear infestation. My first plant was also very wilted which again didn’t seem to be within shipping and handling issues but it being not watered at all before leaving their facility. Again, go somewhere else with your money. Do not spend it here to potentially get a sick plant that could make your other plants sick in your garden.
Very pleased with my purchase, it is growing and healthy!
Growing very fast. Can’t wait til the butterflies start arriving!
Be careful ordering from here unless you want spider mites and a sick plant. I’ve emailed them and it says it may take some days for them to get back to me. This is highly unacceptable to be selling sick infested plants.
