Antelope Horns milkweed flower. Asclepias asperula supports the Monarch Butterfly. Antelope Horns is a weird milkweed from the desert mountains. Antelope horns grows from the Southern California desert mountains across to Arkansas and up into Kansas. Note about milkweeds: If you order these during their dormancy period they ship very well but will arrive as a bag of soil with some roots in it. We do not use any pesticides, including neonicotinoids, on our milkweeds. Our milkweeds are safe for both monarch larvae and adult pollinators. To help Monarchs butterflies recommend selecting a milkweed species that is native to your local area. You can find range maps for each species on Xerces Society's Milkweed Map or by contacting Penny directly. Please note that we often have a wider selection of milkweed species available for purchase in person on Saturdays than what is listed online for shipping. You can check the "in-production" column on our inventory page Las Pilitas Nursery Availability for what milkweed are here in the nursery currently. These are seedlings we grew here that have been potted into gallons but are not shippable yet or email me for more information Penny@laspilitas.com
