Last summer, a few Milkweed plants were blooming on the wetland surrounding the pond.
This is Swamp
Milkweed Asclepias incarnata; it thrives in wet soil, and we encourage it here for the pollinators who thrive on the flowers' nectar.
It usually blooms pink, on two foot tall stems. There are some white blooms also.
This fall, we will try to coax the seeds of these plants to sprout new plants for more blooms in future seasons.
