If you think the native orange-flowered butterfly weed is lovely, just wait until you grow these tricolored blooms from its South American cousin. Tropical Butterfly Weed offers a very long season of bloom, irresistible attraction for pollinators from hummingbirds to butterflies to bees, and large flowers just right for garden, container, and even home.

Tropical Butterfly Weed (Asclepias curassavica) is a tender perennial that will thrive for several years as a houseplant or for one glorious year as an annual outdoors. (It will re-seed itself in zones 9-11.) It is shrubbier than the native butterfly weed, reaching 2 to 3 feet high and up to 2 feet wide with excellent branching and masses of flowers. The blooms are followed by quite handsome seedpods, about 3 to 4 inches long and very slender—great for fresh or dried bouquets.

As you might expect from a plant whose common name includes the word "weed," it's very easy to grow. Give it full sunshine to light shade—bright light indoors—and any well-drained soil and Tropical Butterfly Weed will reward you with its brilliant blooms from early summer until well into fall. The sap of this plant is poisonous, so deer and rabbits leave it alone. And pollinators just can't stay away.

Tropical Butterfly Weed is ideal for containers of all kinds, indoors and out. If growing it outdoors, cut the plant back before the first hard frost and bring it inside for winter—it will flourish. And it's a fine presence in the vegetable garden, bringing pollinators on the wing and keeping nibbling animals at bay. You just can't go wrong with this tropical beauty.

For the longest season of bloom, start the seeds indoors about 8 to 10 weeks before the last spring frost. Transplant when all danger of frost has passed. Keep the plant well watered when young—it becomes quite drought tolerant as it reaches maturity in early summer. Then sit back and enjoy the parade of blooms and seedpods.

Good to have if you've never seen the iTEP exam, but don't rely on it to boost your scores
Format: Paperback
This book is good in that it comes with two practice tests: one in the beginning of the book, one in the end of the book. The grading rubric is helpful too. However, the actual guide part of the book, doesn't help too much with how to improve test scores. What I like least about this guide is that it won't tell you which questions you answered incorrectly on the practice exams. A good test prep guide will tell you what you answered incorrectly, and will tell you what logic to follow to get to the correct answer. In the reading passages, it would be nice to know where I can find evidence to justify the "correct" answer. In the grammar section, it would be nice to know which rule I'm violating. Any test guide should always come with some testing strategies. I.E. If this question is taking up too much time, skip it and go to the next one. This guide lacks simple strategies like that. Simple strategies like that could be useful when incorporated into this guide because there are certain sections on the exam that you can go back to previous questions, but some sections where the "back" button is disabled. Overall, if you've never seen an iTEP exam before, this book is certainly helpful in that it will give you an idea of what you will be testing for. However, this book alone won't help you achieve a score of 6. The table of contents itself will tell you there are only 86 pages of actual content covering test material. That's not enough to cover how to excel in the exam.

Don't buy it
Format: Paperback
It does not prepare for the real test. Using it is absolutely not enough to be approved with good grades. Too expensive for what it offers.
