BULK Swamp Milkweed Seeds | Asclepias incarnate, Monarch Butterfly Native Seeds

Untitled DocumentStoreFeedbackFollow UsShowy MilkweedSwamp Milkweed is a perennial wildflower that is native to the central and eastern parts of the United States. They are prized for their brilliant clusters of fragrant lilac-pink flowers, which bloom continuously for weeks from mid to late summer. The central stem will branch off occasionally, forming lateral light green stems; atop these stems bloom pink-shaded umbels of flowers spanning about 2 to 3 inches across. Swamp Milkweed can be found most often in moist prairie soils, along ponds, rivers, streams, marshes, drainage thickets, floodplain forest and bogs. Swamp Milkweed prefers full to partial sun, wet or moist conditions and soil containing damp clay, rich loam, or silt with rotting organic material. Depending on environmental conditions, Swamp Milkweed can grow between 2 and 5 feet tall and will spread through underground rhizomes and seed shedding. It will reemerge in the Spring and is deer resistant.

ROSE / SWAMP MILKWEED. American Native Wildflower. Milkweed is the primary food plant of Monarch Butterfly caterpillars. The monarch population has been decreasing by 50% a year for over ten years. The reason is not enough wild milkweed for the babies to eat. Once established this plant requires very little care. Drought and heat tolerant. One plant of Rose/Swamp Milkweed will form a large clump by its spreading rhizomes, which can be divided. This happens the second season and beyond. Tough perennial. Some can live 5+ years. 50+ Quality heirloom seeds. Some American Native Wildflower seeds need to go through a cold winter to germinate. This plant is one of them. They do this so the seed won’t sprout in fall, only to have the seedling not make it through a cold winter. I have stratified these seeds to simulate a cold winter(stratification) This raises the germination rate considerably.
