An essential part of every garden should be at least one Swamp Milkweed plant. These native host plants for the Monarch butterfly are essential parts of our ecosystems in the US. Swamp Milkweed plants are found throughout the US except for WA, OR, CA or MS. At maturity, these plants develop clusters of brilliant, aromatic red to pink flowers that will attract various pollinators including Hummingbirds!
This plant thrives in Moist to Wet soils with Full Sun.
