I have three types of milkweed blooming in my yard. I've let a big patch of Common Milkweed (Asclepias syriaca) turn into a jungle near my mailbox.
Butterfly Milkweed (Asclepias tuberosa) with its bright orange flowers is more attractive. I have some blooming in a prairie garden in my backyard.
Swamp Milkweed (Asclepias incarnata) with its brilliant pink flowers is a close contender for showiest milkweed. It grows naturally near our pond.
All three are great host plants for Monarch butterflies and their caterpillars.
