If you have limited space, no garden at all or just prefer container gardening, this kit is made for you! Container gardening makes it easy to care for your plants. As long as you have space on your porch, deck, patio or balcony for a medium-sized container, you can garden. Our transition styled decorative rattan planter (sized 12" x 12" x 16") comes with a hard-shell inner plastic growing pot, bag of medium, planting stock, gardening gloves and growing directions. Asclepia tuberosa, commonly called butterfly weed, features bright orange flower clusters and lance-shaped leaves. Popular native plant. This specific variety is the most drought tolerant of all. It is a herbaceous perennial. Tropical, multitasking milk weed attracts monarch butterflies that use the plant as a source for nectar. Monarch butterflies lay eggs on the plant, and in turn, the resulting larvae (caterpillars) use the plant leaves as a food source. Butterfly magnet!
