Asclepias erosa ~ Desert Milkweed

Asclepias erosa can be found through much of lower California below the elevation of 6200 feet. Asclepias erosa grows 3-4 feet tall and wide on a variety of soil types but requires dry summer conditions. The milkweeds are a frequent food and nectar source for native bees and butterflies including the Monarch Butterfly. Asclepias erosa is a great addition to the butterfly garden.
