Swamp Milkweed
The swamp milkweed (Asclepias incarnata), offered by Northern Wildflowers, is a perennial plant perfect for naturalized gardens and wetland areas. With its vibrant pink blooms from July to September, this native plant attracts a variety of pollinators, including bees, hummingbirds, and monarch butterflies, for which it serves as a host plant. Thriving in clay-rich, moist soils, it plays a vital role in ecosystem restoration.

Growing Tips:
For successful germination, cold stratify seeds by placing them in a moist substrate in the refrigerator for 6 to 8 weeks.

Swamp milkweed thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moderately to very moist soils.
