Swamp Milkweed
Swamp Milkweed (Asclepias incarnata)—also known as Rose Milkweed—is a beautiful native perennial that thrives in moist soils across the central and eastern United States. Typically found near streams, ditches, and low-lying meadows, this species grows 4 to 5 feet tall and produces clusters of mauve-pink flowers at the tops of its stems.
Swamp Milkweed is a favorite among Monarch butterflies, providing essential habitat and nectar for caterpillars and adults alike. Its fragrant blooms also attract honey bees and other pollinators. Ideal for pollinator gardens, rain gardens, and bioswales, this hardy perennial blooms all summer long. For best germination, seeds should be cold stratified for 30 days before planting in spring or direct sown in late fall.
