Milkweed - Showy
Cousin to the common eastern milkweed, showy milkweed is native to areas west of the Mississippi, with its range extending into Michigan and Ohio in the East. It is an essential species for Monarch butterflies; the caterpillars feast on its leaves and the adult butterflies draw from the rich nectar sources of the pink to purple starry flower umbels. A welcome addition to less cultivated sunny areas, adaptable to dry meadows and rain gardens alike.
