Description: Test Blood Flower Milkweed (Asclepias curassavica) Check out our other listings! Blood Flower, also known as Tropical Milkweed and Mexican Butterfly Weed, is a perennial flower (though it can be grown as an annual in cooler climates) native to the Caribbean, Central America, and South America. Grows to around 3 feet in height and produces stunning clusters of yellow, orange, and red flowers in early summer and throughout fall. Attracts numerous butterflies—particularly monarchs, whose larvae feed exclusively on milkweed—as well as hummingbirds. Deer tend to avoid. Direct sow just beneath the soil's surface in late fall or early spring. Or, start indoors by sowing seeds just beneath the surface of the soil in a seed flat 6-8 weeks before the last spring frost. Typically blooms during its first year. IMPORTANT NOTE: If you intend to grow Blood Flower in a frost-free region where the cold will not kill them off, please be sure to cut back the plants to ground level at the end of fall so they will not seed and spread. This will help incentivize monarchs to continue their migration instead of remaining behind to feed on the plants!
