Review
Who says you can’t transplant Butterfly Weed?
Information online suggests that Butterfly Weed can not be transplanted. Eden Bros has found a way around that.
I wanted mature plants for my bed THIS season. I did not want to plant seeds and wait for next year before I got results.
My tap-roots arrived in time for planting.
They were firm and healthy with little sprouts on each root.
I put them in the ground within 24 hours of receiving them. All are taking root and sprouting through the soil at this point.
I am hopeful for a lovely crop of blossoms THIS season.
