Description

Asclepias Syriaca aka  Common Milkweed. This native plant was once seen in abundance along roadsides and open fields. Their decline is still a mystery with many opinions on why they are disappearing. 

Growing.  Keep well watered the first year. A well established plant can withstand some dryness.  Common Milkweed will spread far and deep. It’s not uncommon to find the roots 12” deep and travel under poured sidewalks.  If these are planted in a flower bed you will have to dig out the wanderers each year that come up in an area you don’t like or can’t be mowed off.  The dug up roots, however, can be shared or transplanted elsewhere. If you have a field or area that isn’t manicured they will fill in nicely.
