Asclepias nectar- the perfect summer time beverage….if you’re a monarch butterfly! 🦋Many pollinators will feed on the nectar and pollen of Asclepias tuberosa, but monarchs also need this plant as a starter home for their young. Monarch caterpillars can only feed on Asclepias (milkweed) plants. Our horticulturists grow milkweed in many of our gardens to provide this critical source of habitat. 🎥: Michael Miller, Horticulturist #MonarchButterfly #Asclepisa #MonarchWaystation #SmithsonianGardens
