Plant Spacing

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:

bush distance

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:

Description Welcome pollinators to your garden with the cheery yellow flowers of 'Hello Yellow' Milkweed (Asclepias tuberosa). This long-blooming perennial boasts clusters of bright yellow flowers all summer long! They are rich in fragrance and nectar, but that's not all they offer to pollinators. Monarch butterflies use milkweed as a host plant, which means they lay their eggs on the leaves and caterpillars feed on the foliage. This native perennial is easy to grow, deer resistant, and drought-tolerant, making it an excellent choice for any gardener! Maintenance is a breeze, and it is generally disease-free. Milkweed is ideal for meadow gardens, native plantings, and wildlife sanctuaries. Plant it in a sunny spot to support your local pollinators! Details Botanical name: Asclepias tuberosa 'Hello Yellow'

'Hello Yellow' Milkweed - Asclepias tuberosa

Moisture sensitive

I ordered 4 of these and was negligent in watching their water needs in their pots. One died from lack of water while the other three were drooping. I hope whenI get them planted in my very dry yard they make it.

Very disappointed

My 5 Hello Yellow Milkweed arrived today in horrible condition. Wilted, broken stems, and just in really, really sad shape. It looked as though they quickly dug the plants out of a garden, shoved it in a plastic container, threw some soil in and sent them off. Definitely will not be ordering from this company again!!
