This summer blooming flower looks best in wildflower gardens or meadows. It attracts hummingbirds and is a larval host to the monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus), queen butterfly (Danaus gilippus) and soldier butterfly, (Danaus eresimus). It is not monarchs’ preferred milkweed, but it will still attract many butterflies. It blooms in mid to late summer with bright orange flowers and is winter dormant.
