Swamp Milkweed

POLLINATOR FRIENDLy + VERY PRETTY

Native milkweed has delicate blooms that come in a variety of colors and is a hardy perennial that thrives in summer’s hottest sun. Plus, Monarchs must have milkweed to feed their young. Hatching caterpillars eat until they are full enough to create a beautiful jade chrysalis. Ten days later, a new Monarch will emerge. The transformation never gets old.

Butterfly milkweed is best in the hottest, dry spots and all varieties have a really nice, sweet but subtle vanilla fragrance.
