    Asclepias Tuberosa 'Hello Yellow'

    'Hello Yellow' Butterfly Weed (Asclepias) is a standout native perennial for sunny, hot, and dry spots. Its rich golden-yellow blooms glow in the garden for up to three months, and a quick deadheading after the first flush encourages even more flowers.

    Perfect for borders, pollinator gardens, and naturalized meadows, 'Hello Yellow' is both beautiful and beneficial. It’s a vital food source for butterfly larvae and a magnet for adult butterflies, making it one of the best wildflowers you can plant for pollinators.

    Plant in groups for a bold sweep of golden color buzzing with life. After blooming, decorative seed pods form in fall—ideal for dried arrangements and seasonal décor.

  • Growing Tips for ‘Hello Yellow’ Butterfly Weed (Asclepias) 🌼🦋

    Sunlight ☀️

    • Plant in full sun – at least 6–8 hours of direct light each day.
    • More sun = more blooms and more butterflies.

    Soil Needs 🌱

    • Prefers well-drained soil – it does not like wet, soggy spots.
    • Tolerates poor, sandy, or rocky soil just fine.
    • Avoid rich, heavily fertilized soil; it can make plants floppy.

    Watering 💧

    • Water regularly the first season to help roots establish.
    • Once established, it’s drought tolerant and only needs occasional watering.
    • Let the soil dry slightly between waterings.

    Planting Distance 📏

    • Space plants about 12–18 inches apart.
    • For a bold display, plant in groups or drifts.

    Deadheading & Blooms ✂️

    • After the first big flush of flowers, deadhead (clip off spent blooms) to encourage more blooms.
    • Enjoy up to 3 months of color with this simple step.

    Fertilizer & Care 🌿

    • Little to no fertilizer needed – this is a tough native.
    • A light layer of compost in spring is enough if your soil is poor.

    Winter & Perennial Care ❄️

    • This is a hardy perennial – it dies back in winter and returns in spring.
    • In late fall or early spring, cut back old stems to a few inches above the ground.

    Supporting Butterflies 🦋🐛

    • ‘Hello Yellow’ is both a nectar plant and a host plant for butterfly larvae.
    • Expect some leaf chewing from caterpillars – that’s a good sign!
    • Avoid pesticides; they can harm butterflies and other pollinators.

    Container Growing 🪴 (Optional)

    • Can grow in large, deep containers with drainage holes.
    • Use a well-draining potting mix and place in full sun.

    Quick Success Checklist ✅

    • Full sun? ☀️
    • Well-drained soil? 🌱
    • Not overwatering? 💧
    • Deadheading after first bloom? ✂️
    • No pesticides? 🦋

    Follow these tips and ‘Hello Yellow’ will reward you with glowing color and a garden full of butterflies season after season. 🌼🦋

  • How to Use ‘Hello Yellow’ Butterfly Weed in Your Garden 🌼🦋

    Create a Butterfly Haven 🦋

    • Plant near patios, decks, or seating areas so you can watch butterflies up close.
    • Combine with other pollinator favorites like coneflower, bee balm, and black-eyed Susan for a nonstop buffet.

    Brighten Sunny Borders 🌞

    • Use ‘Hello Yellow’ as a sunny accent in the front or middle of a mixed border.
    • Pair with purple, blue, or deep red flowers for a bold color contrast.
    • Mix with ornamental grasses for a soft, natural look.

    Naturalize in Meadows & Wild Areas 🌾

    • Let it naturalize in meadows, along fence lines, or at the edge of woodlands.
    • Great for low-maintenance areas where you want color and wildlife without much work.

    Cut Flowers for Indoors 💐

    • Snip a few stems for fresh arrangements – the golden blooms light up any vase.
    • Combine with daisies, grasses, and other wildflowers for a casual, country-style bouquet.

    Use Seed Pods for Crafts & Décor 🍂

    • In fall, let some flowers turn into decorative seed pods.
    • Use pods in dried arrangements, wreaths, and seasonal centerpieces.
    • Leave a few pods on the plant to self-seed and feed wildlife.

    Support Wildlife & Education 🐛🦋

    • Show kids (and curious adults!) the full butterfly life cycle: eggs, caterpillars, chrysalides, and adults.
    • Use it as a teaching plant about native species, pollinators, and eco-friendly gardening.

    Anchor a Pollinator or Native Plant Bed 🌿

    • Make ‘Hello Yellow’ a feature plant in a pollinator garden or native-plant bed.
    • Surround it with other natives to create a healthy, resilient ecosystem.

    Photo-Ready Garden Moments 📸

    • Plant where you’ll get good light for photos of butterflies and blooms.
    • Perfect for sharing your pollinator-friendly garden on social media.

    Once planted, ‘Hello Yellow’ becomes a hard-working star: it adds color, supports butterflies, and gives you beautiful blooms and seed pods to enjoy indoors and out. 🌼🦋
