    This is my second attempt at growing Butterfly Weed from seed and they're springing up! Does anyone know if they flower in the first year and if they are annuals or perennials?

    Hi

    I just looked it up for you. Butterfly Weed (Asclepias tuberosa) is a perennial that might take as long as two years establish from seed. I would expect much from it in the first year, but you never know.
