Color, nectar, roots, sap and seeds are examples of the adaptations of milkweeds to different climates, organisms and soils. Bright colors and sweet nectar attract bees, butterflies (especially Monarchs) and hummingbirds that take away pollen for turning up more milkweeds elsewhere. Horizontal roots that grow spring stalks from underground buds and vertical roots that push 12.5 feet (3.81 meters) downward brace milkweeds from human- and Nature-attempted removals and grab soil air, moisture and nutrients. Milky, poisonous sap and pod-protected, tough seeds with wind dispersal-friendly fluffy tufts respectively control predation and, like the roots, encourage proliferation.
