Swamp milkweed is native to pond edges and stream banks of the eastern and Midwestern United States. The cultivar ‘Cinderella’ bears rose-red flowers. Though this perennial is a wetland plant, it is very adaptable and at home in sunny gardens.
Delightful, lightly fragrant flowers are produce summer through fall. They are born atop upright stems that hold narrow, lance-shaped leaves opposite of each other. The flowers are borne in flat clusters; each flower is complex and topped with a “crown.” The blooms are very attractive to butterflies, bees and hummingbirds. Distinctive fruits follow the bloom and are prominent, rounded, thin follicles that split down one side to reveal many seeds topped with airy plumes of silvery white hairs that catch the wind and carry the seeds away.
This butterfly weed prefers a sunny location with moist to wet, average soil. It has thick, white roots adapted to growing in moist soils. It is sensitive to disturbance, so plants do not transplant well and are best propagated from seed. This adaptable and desirable perennial is great for sunny beds, wildflower or butterfly gardens. The dried pods are also used in everlasting flower arrangements making these plants equally suitable for cutting gardens.
