Asclepias incarnata - Cinderella
A charming selection of swamp milkweed, Cinderella produces abundant rounded umbels of rosy-pink, vanilla-scented blossoms from mid-summer through early fall. Its upright clump stays more compact and uniform than the species, reaching about 3–4 ft tall, making it perfect for flower beds or pollinator gardens. Rich in nectar and also serving as a host plant for monarch caterpillars, it draws bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, and more wildlife. Adaptable to moist or even boggy soils in full sun, it’s low maintenance, deer- and rabbit-resistant, and truly a cut-flower standout.
