About Swan Plant, Milkweed Seed
Swan Plant Milkweed (Gomphocarpus fruticosus) produces creamy white flowers followed by large, inflated ornamental seed pods. Upright plants bring distinctive texture to sunny beds and cutting gardens while also serving as a host plant for monarch caterpillars where the species is grown. This tender perennial performs best in full sun with evenly moist, well-drained soil. In colder regions, grow it as an annual or overwinter protected plants indoors.
