Asclepias 'Hello Yellow' is a seed strain of the typically bright orange-flowered, North American native Asclepias tuberosa, which flowers remarkably true within the range of yellow-gold. The drought-tolerant deciduous Asclepias tuberosa 'Hello Yellow' makes a 20" tall x 2' wide mound of stems clothed with index finger-sized green leaves that is topped, starting in early June (NC), with branched terminal spikes of golden to yellow-gold flowers...a favorite butterfly and hummingbird attractant!
