Asclepias - Soulmate Swamp Milkweed

Asclepias Milkweed Bareroot | Soulmate

This stunning Asclepias is a carefree, long-lived beauty producing dense clusters of showy, rosy pink blossoms from early summer to fall. Beyond being irresistible to monarch butterflies with its sweet vanilla aroma, you can encourage even more flowers by cutting back the spent blooms!

This low-maintenance bloomer brings just as much happiness to gardeners as it does to the pollinators that frequently come to visit.

Fun Fact: Asclepias are the only plants that Monarch butterflies will lay their eggs on and are critical to their survival. When you grow a Butterfly Weed or Milkweed, you're actually supporting this spectacular species! Allow Monarch caterpillars to eat the plant and develop into butterflies.

Note: The sap is considered toxic to curious pets if ingested. Plant with caution.
