Description
Monarch populations have been in decline for a number of years, and the loss of nectar sources and milkweeds has been indicated as a major contributor to these declines. This mixture is composed of native wildflowers, garden flowers and milkweeds which supply nectar sources for adult monarchs. Milkweeds are utilized for egg-laying and provide food for monarch larvae. This mixture is appropriate for home gardens, commercial landscaping, gold courses and other maintained sites. Seeding Rate: 12-24 lbs. per acre.
