Asclepias - Ice Ballet Swamp Milkweed

Asclepias Milkweed Bareroot | Ice Ballet

Clusters of fragrant, cloudlike white flowers cover the Ice Ballet Asclepias Incarnata, more commonly known as white swamp milkweed. The tall stalks wave in the breeze, enticing butterflies, bees and hummingbirds alike from late spring to midsummer.

A gorgeous addition to the full sun landscape, with luxurious lance-shaped foliage that complements the blossoms for beautiful cut flower arrangements.

Fun Fact: Asclepias are the only plants that Monarch butterflies will lay their eggs on and are critical to their survival. When you grow a Butterfly Weed or Milkweed, you're actually supporting this spectacular species! Allow Monarch caterpillars to eat the plant and develop into butterflies.

Note: The sap is considered toxic to curious pets if ingested. Plant with caution.
