Common milkweed seed is sold in quantities of 25 or 100. Seed germinates better with cold stratification.

Common milkweed is well-known these days for its importance in the life cycle of the Monarch butterfly.

It is also a choice wild vegetable (flowers, shoots, young seed pods) when gathered and prepared properly.

Seed will come dry and requires cold stratification for best results.
