Gay Butterflies Butterfly Weed (Asclepias tuberosa 'Gay Butterflies'), sometimes called Orange Milkweed, brings a spectacular mix of yellow, orange, and red blooms to your garden, creating a multicolored display that outshines the traditional orange butterfly weed. This compact selection of native milkweed grows just 1-2 feet tall, making it ideal for the front of borders, container gardens, and smaller spaces where you want maximum pollinator impact without the height. Monarchs, swallowtails, and hummingbirds treat these nectar-rich flowers like an all-you-can-eat buffet from early summer through late summer.

The timing couldn't be better to add Gay Butterflies to your garden. With monarchs proposed for threatened species listing and 2025 designated the Year of the Asclepias by the National Garden Bureau, planting native milkweed has never been more important for butterfly conservation. Eastern monarch populations nearly doubled in 2025, showing that individual gardeners can make a real difference by providing critical habitat.

A Compact Pollinator Powerhouse

The cheerful flower clusters appear in warm shades that shift and blend across the yellow-orange-red spectrum, with individual plants displaying unique color combinations. Each flat-topped flower cluster contains dozens of tiny blooms that provide easy landing pads for butterflies and beneficial insects. Unlike taller selections, Gay Butterflies maintains a tidy, compact habit that works beautifully in mixed borders, pollinator gardens, rock gardens, and even large containers. The narrow green leaves create an unassuming backdrop that lets the brilliant flowers take center stage.

Supporting Butterfly Populations

Gay Butterflies serves double duty as a monarch butterfly host plant. Adult monarchs, swallowtails, and painted ladies visit for nectar, while monarch caterpillars depend on the foliage as their exclusive food source. Planting native milkweed species like this one directly supports declining monarch populations by providing critical habitat throughout their lifecycle. The compact size makes it easy to include multiple plants in borders and pollinator gardens, increasing the food supply for both caterpillars and adult butterflies.

Tough, Reliable, and Long-Lived

Once established, this native North American wildflower thrives on neglect. The deep taproot allows Gay Butterflies to access moisture far below the soil surface, making it remarkably drought tolerant and eliminating the need for summer watering in most climates. Deer and rabbits avoid the milky sap, so your plants remain untouched even in areas with heavy browsing pressure. The taproot also makes this native perennial incredibly long-lived, with plants persisting for decades in the same spot. Be patient in spring as butterfly weed emerges later than most perennials, typically not showing growth until soil temperatures warm in mid to late spring.

Design Ideas and Landscape Uses

The compact stature of Gay Butterflies makes it versatile in pollinator gardens and native plant landscapes. Plant it along walkways where you can watch butterflies up close, mass it in drifts for bold color impact, or combine it with other native perennials like purple coneflower, black-eyed Susan, and little bluestem for a naturalistic meadow effect. The warm flower colors pair beautifully with purple salvias, blue Russian sage, and yellow coreopsis. In containers, combine Gay Butterflies with trailing plants like creeping zinnia for a pollinator-friendly patio display. After flowering, the ornamental seed pods split open to release silky seeds, adding late-season interest and feeding goldfinches through fall.

Better than loofahs
Bought these for my husband and he loves them! Regular loofahs fall apart to quickly and don’t give him the right amount of exfoliation he is looking for as these ones do.

Round scrubbers are better but these will do
These are great for making my skin feel clean and smooth. I do find that these rectangular ones feel a bit less firm and the padding inside gets scrunched up on the first use. It kind of makes it feel like an old pillow. Still, even with that, you do get a nice scrub with lots of bubbles. Cleanlogic are my favorite bath accessory.
