| How long does it take for butterfly weed and swamp milkweed to germinate i stratified then planted them but they still have germinated in a week only 1 or two? |
Follow-Up Postings:

| The germination of many of the milkweeds can be erratic, meaning not all seeds sown will germinate at the same time. You could expect to find seedlings over a period of even weeks, not days. |

| I am growing milkweed this year, as one of my "test plants." I had 3 of the seeds germinate after just a few days (4-5). The others never came up. I only wanted one or two plants though. |
