About Swamp Milkweed
Don’t let the undesirable common name “Swamp Milkweed” fool you - these are beautiful, useful plants that gently smell like vanilla (mmm) and feed valuable pollinators with their sweet nectar.
These plants can be invasive without natural competition, so makes a great choice for a wild pollinator garden or a meadow planting.
Swamp Milkweed gained its unfortunate nickname for liking wet feet… very wet feet. This plant would be happy in standing water for days on end!
