Asclepias incarnata 'Soulmate', Swamp Milkweed or Rose Milkweed Size:3 qt sq; ships when dormant It thrives in rich woodlandThis selection of Swamp milkweed has clusters of pink buds that open with pink petals and a white center. Blooms have a pleasant vanilla scent. After blooms fade, 45 inch long seed pods develop then split open to release seeds that catch and ride the wind with puffs of silky threads. Upright and clump forming, this beauty is slow to establish and slow to emerge in spring but once settled in it sends out DEEP taproots. So make sure you plant it where
