Green of the Month:

Desert Milkweed

Asclepias subulata

This tough, low-water plant isn’t just great for desert landscapes—it’s a lifeline for Monarch butterflies. While Monarchs pass through Arizona during migration (October to April), Desert Milkweed (Asclepias subulata) is one of the few plants where they lay their eggs and feed their caterpillars. With Monarch populations declining due to habitat loss, planting native milkweed helps create vital “stepping stones” for pollinators across our communities. Support pollinators—plant with purpose!
