Fragrant, showy clusters of pink and light purple flowers. It does well in landscape plantings with moist soil and in plantings near bodies of water. Unlike many ornamentals, swamp milkweed tolerates heavy clay soils and is very deer resistant. It is a more cultivated alternative to common milkweed that is also attractive to egg-laying Monarchs.
Alternate Common Names: Rose Milkweed, Pleurisy Root, White Indian hemp
