Butterfly Milkweed

This summer, BOFFO is collaborating with artist TM Davy and Gay Gardens to bring Butterfly milkweed plants to Fire Island. 

Asclepius tuberosa or 'Gay Butterflies' Butterfly Milkweed is a compact milkweed for full sun and dry sand, attracting native pollinators at the bright front edge of a garden. They feature flat topped clusters of bright orange flowers that bloom May through September. (1-2 ft tall)

Fridays from 12pm - 6pm
Saturdays from 10am - 6pm
