Swamp Milkweed is a captivating addition to any garden landscape renowned for its dual role as a cut flower favorite and a haven for butterflies. From the onset of summer until the first frost, clusters of rose to mauve florets grace sturdy stems, offering a stunning display of color and charm. In our meticulous trials, this species has proven itself nearly identical to the esteemed variety, Soulmate, ensuring consistent quality and beauty.

 

Complemented by attractive lance-shaped leaves, Swamp Milkweed adds elegance to both cut flower arrangements and garden beds alike. Its allure extends beyond aesthetics, as it serves as a magnet for butterflies and hummingbirds, while also providing essential habitat for monarch butterflies in their larval stage. A native gem of North America, Swamp Milkweed is also affectionately known as pink milkweed and rose milkweed, embodying the natural beauty and resilience of the region. Welcome this enchanting plant into your garden and witness the magic of nature unfold before your eyes.
