have: swamp milkweed (a. incarnata) for sase to first replier

11 years ago

I have enough Asclepias incarnata (pink flowered form of Swamp Milkweed) seeds to send to one person. It's seed from last year so all I am asking for is a SASE and your promise that you'll plant it somewhere that it won't get sprayed by pesticide so that monarch butterfly caterpillars can live on it and eat it. :)

If you are interested, please reply here and I will email you.

I wish I had more to share, but this offer is only good for the first person to reply!

I'm looking for some. I would prefer this year but if you think what you have is viable, I might take it. Would you be interested in a swap? I can harvest some Lobelia Cardinalis and mail you a packet of this year's seed.

I specifically want it for aiding the butterflies. This is for going in margins wetlands behind my house. No pesticides. There was a beaver dam down the street that flooded the area and killed all the scrub trees and brush. The town tore the dam down and the beaver didn't rebuild it so I have a big area of wet soil with full to part sun out back now.
