Swamp Milkweed is a native perennial typically found in full sun in swamps, floodplains, and wet meadows. Though not drought tolerant, Swamp Milkweed has very high pollinator value and provides an essential food source for monarch butterfly caterpillars. More chrysalises have been observed on this milkweed variety than on any other in our production fields. The attractive pink flowers of Swamp Milkweed bloom from summer to fall, reaching a height of up to 4.9′.
