Asclepias fascicularis, also known as Narrowleaf Milkweed, is a flowering perennial that boasts attractive clusters of lavender and white, starry flowers, measuring 4-5 inches (10-12 cm) across. These blooms appear from early summer to fall and serve as a great source of nectar for butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and other beneficial insects.
The flowers grow on upright, thin stems that are clad with long, narrow, and pointed leaves. As the blooms fade, they give way to smooth seed pods in the fall, which can be used in dried flower arrangements. When these seed pods open, they reveal seeds with long, silvery-white, silky hairs.
Adaptable to a wide range of conditions, this milkweed is one of the easiest and fastest to establish, making it a great choice for both flower gardens and natural settings. It can thrive in high or low water conditions, withstand heat, and grow in all types of soils, including clay.
For optimal growth, we recommend planting Asclepias fascicularis in 2-4 inch peat pots. Fill the pots three-quarters of the way with seed starting potting soil and gently add water.
This perennial can reach heights of 1-3 feet (30-90 cm) and a width of 12 inches (30 cm). Asclepias fascicularis is native to North America and can self-seed, allowing you to enjoy growing it with your family.
