Asclepias verticillata
Asclepias verticillata (Whorled Milkweed, or Horsetail Milkweed) has been used as a medicinal plant by Native American tribes and in Butterfly gardening. This plant is also cited as a poisonous plant to livestock, but is rarely consumed by them because it is so unpalatable. It is about one to three feet tall. It tends to be associated with poorer soil types where competition is more limited.
Its native range includes most of eastern North America and parts of western North America.
Prices listed are subject to change, based upon size change and availability.
We are a small local nursery with limited shipping capability. We will do our best to ship smaller material (usually 1 or 2 gallon), although we can sometimes ship larger plants with the pots removed.
We have some species that are not listed, as we have too few of them to make a full listing plausible. You can always inquire.
We will consider contract growing an order with appropriate advance notice and availability of seed, cuttings or lining out stock.
