Swamp milkweed, also known as rose milkweed, is one of the showier milkweeds, with large, pink flowers that attract a wide variety of pollinators and closely co-evolved insects. This species will grow in moist locations but will thrive in average garden soil if nursed a little bit in its first year. Swamp milkweed is perfect for naturalizing, restoration projects, and lowland garden beds.
