Maintenance Tips

• Water moderately; once established, showy milkweed is quite drought-resistant.
• Trim back in late winter to promote vigorous new growth in spring.
• Prefers well-drained soil but is adaptable to various soil types.
• Allow seedlings to grow to enhance the milkweed population or remove them to control the plant's spread.
• Milkweed seed pods can be easily collected, saved, and shared to propagate this powerful pollinator plant.
