Asclepias incarnata

$4.00

Pink Milkweed explodes with clusters of fragrant, rosy-pink flowers, each star-like floret rich with nectar and absolutely irresistible to butterflies — especially Monarchs, for whom this plant is a critical host. Hummingbirds, bees, and other pollinators flock to it, creating a dynamic, living landscape right outside your door. After blooming, the upright seed pods split open to release silky, wind-drifting seeds — adding another layer of interest and helping this native spread in the right setting.
