Sullivant's Milkweed

Sullivant's milkweed looks very similar to commom milkweed and is a monarch's favourite but is less aggressive than the common milkweed. The large clusters of pink flowers bloom from June to August and are very fragrant.

Ecology:

The gorgeous pink flowers attract many butterflies, hummingbirds, bees and a huge variety of other insects with their nectar. Like all milkweed plants it is the larval host to the Monarch butterfly. It is a great plant for any pollinator garden.

Growing conditions:

Full sun with average to moist conditions. Grows well in regular garden conditions.

60-150 cm tall and wide.
