Hardy zone 9

This is the most amazing plant I have ever had. I placed the small plant I received a yr ago into a bigger pot with extra soil. It grew very quickly. I learned what aphids were and how to get rid of them. I got to see the whole life cycle of the milk weed plant. Keeping this little plant alive and healthy through the hot summer months to see it seed was truly special for me and my kids. We planted the seedlings in a large pot and they are now going beautifully. The original plant grew 5 shoots from it's roots and we just moved It to a much larger pot as well. Super happy we bought ā¤ļø it!

Terrible quality and hazardous to health of humams

My plant came almost dead, it was dry and needed a lot of water. Luckily plant survived. However, I have another concern. My plant came infected with helminths. Not sure what kind but I am so worried about exposure for my kids both under 4 and myself. It was supposed to be an indoor plant that we could use to help raise our monarchs we rescue from our garden. However, I was confused by the many monarch caterpillars that were dead and the way they were dead is very unusual. A few days later at the bottom of the container I have it sitting in to collect the water, there were very skinny, long, translucent worms that looked like they were filled with blood. They looked like a parasitic worm to me so I looked them up and sure enough they were helminths probably hookworm, roundworm, or other arasitic worm. Now I don't know what to do with the plant. I don't want these helminths to be in our property so I don't want to put them outside. I feel like I should just bag up the entire plant in plastic and dump in the trash. Or soak the entire plant and pot in boiling hot water and then bag up and throw away. Such a waste of money, not sure if I can get my money back or not. I really hope I can. What the heck do I do about my babies, what if they are infected with parasites now? My youngest got into the plant and spilled dirt in the floor and my oldest has been helping me water the plants by feeling the dirt and adding water if it's dry. I am so terrified for my children's safety right now I am a nervous wreck.

Received Four Cats too ā¤ļø

I ordered a milkweed last year from the same company and my husband pulled the root up out of the ground with my Lantana when he cut the grass for the first time this spring 😢So, I ordered 3 milkweeds this year and ordered a galvanized steel planter to make that my daughters butterfly garden. I read some of the reviews about how some people actually got "free" monarch caterpillars with the milkweed they ordered. As soon as we got our shipment today, my girls and I got to searching. WOW! Were we shocked!! We got 4 Monarch caterpillars and 2 Monarch eggs between the three milkweed plants. Super duper excited because we also have 16 Monarch cats coming the following week, so we will have plenty of milkweed to go around.

Monarch caterpillars!!

The plant was clearly in distress due to shipping, so make sure you unpack it immediately and care for it. My family & I were extremely excited and in awe that there were actual live monach caterpillars attached!

Received in poor shape.

The plant was in rough shape when delivered. Wilted, and a lot of yellow and brown leaves. I soaked it for about a half hour, removed the dead leaves and put it in the shade on the patio fir several days. A week later I cut it back and repotted the plant. I am still trying to save it.
