Asclepias tuberosa 'Hello Yellow'
Choose Hello Yellow Butterfly Weed for a sunny pollinator bed where monarch value matters; the tradeoff is that it wants open, well-drained conditions and will not give you formal structure.
Buy This If
You want monarch host value.
Your site is sunny and open.
You prefer yellow over orange.
Skip This If
The bed stays wet.
You need a screen.
You want instant fullness.
PGNE Report Card
Category
Grade
Why
Landscape Impact
A-
The yellow flower clusters read clearly in a sunny border without taking over the planting.
Growth Rate
B+
It can build quickly once settled, but young plants still need time to fill out.
Maintenance
B
Care is simple in the right site, but poor drainage and crowding can cause problems.
Deer Resistance
A-
Deer usually pass this by, since the foliage deters browsing, though no plant is completely immune where pressure is severe.
Small Space Fit
A
Its compact clumping habit fits well into smaller sunny beds and border fronts.
Screening Value
F
This is a flowering perennial for pollinators, not a plant for privacy or coverage.
Our Experience
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend this for sunny pollinator plantings where the soil drains well and the customer wants a native plant with a clear purpose.

Customers Usually Ask
Will it attract monarchs?
Yes, it is a milkweed and serves as a monarch host plant.
Does it spread aggressively?
It is clumping, not a runner like some other milkweeds.
Should I cut it back?
Cut back old stems after the season or in early spring.

I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!

The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!

Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
Bought 8-10 ft and all were barely 8 if you count the container. Trees are thin and lots of brown branches and broken branches due you thrown in box truck no wrapping or anything. Hoping they survive and thicken up quick…
