American Plant Exchange Live Milkweed Plant, Host for Monarch Butterflies, Plant Pot for Home and Garden Decor, 6" Pot

Great healthy plants. Yes, had some yellow leaves when received but no big deal. Plants growing well.My two caterpillars love the plants. They are growing so much bigger! And… then… I found the plants had two small caterpillars on the plants. Who are now in my habitat as well.I seldom write reviews but really wanted to do a shout out to the vendor!Thank you!

Plant was packaged well, arrived quickly, And was very big and healthy. Will buy again!

My plant came almost dead, it was dry and needed a lot of water. Luckily plant survived. However, I have another concern. My plant came infected with helminths. Not sure what kind but I am so worried about exposure for my kids both under 4 and myself. It was supposed to be an indoor plant that we could use to help raise our monarchs we rescue from our garden. However, I was confused by the many monarch caterpillars that were dead and the way they were dead is very unusual. A few days later at the bottom of the container I have it sitting in to collect the water, there were very skinny, long, translucent worms that looked like they were filled with blood. They looked like a parasitic worm to me so I looked them up and sure enough they were helminths probably hookworm, roundworm, or other arasitic worm. Now I don't know what to do with the plant. I don't want these helminths to be in our property so I don't want to put them outside. I feel like I should just bag up the entire plant in plastic and dump in the trash. Or soak the entire plant and pot in boiling hot water and then bag up and throw away. Such a waste of money, not sure if I can get my money back or not. I really hope I can. What the heck do I do about my babies, what if they are infected with parasites now? My youngest got into the plant and spilled dirt in the floor and my oldest has been helping me water the plants by feeling the dirt and adding water if it's dry. I am so terrified for my children's safety right now I am a nervous wreck.

I received my tropical milkweed carefully packaged and in very good health for traveling a rather long distance in the summer heat. It was left to with a good watering to acclimate to the environment/sun for about 36 hours or so and has been planted ever since. It looks to be doing well and is going to bloom very soon. I have also found two monarch caterpillars on the plant so far!! I am so pleased to have this tropical milkweed to add to my butterfly garden with my native varieties of orange butterfly and pink swamp milkweed. Highly recommend this seller!

Got a great plant. Arrived quickly, in great condition, with lots of healthy leaves and stems. I also got the pleasure of getting 5 minuscule Monarch caterpillars with the plant (which was my hope). Got to watch them grow to 5 chunky caterpillars. I did end up having to supplement the food supply with some common milkweed because one plant should probably only support max 3 caterpillars. Got my moneys worth with this plant.

Plant was carefully packed and plant looked healthy. A couple of leaves were yellow and fell off. I saw no caterpillars or eggs on the leaves, but I could've missed seeing them. I put the plant in the soil in my garden. Wait to see what happens and I will give updates. Update,Here it is 5/24.No caterpillars no eggs. Contacted the seller and they ignored my request for a refund.Do not purchase this item. They did not make good on their quarantee.

It came in good condition, planted it, watered it, did all the proper steps sadly it didn’t come back this season. I’ve never purchased online before. Wish it came back this season.

I was very pleased with how healthy & large this plant is. I thought that being shipped in 90+ degree weather was bound to affect the plant negatively, but it seems (after a week) perfectly fine (& actually looked only some wilted upon arrival). I’m hoping to encourage some butterflies!
