This small perennial blooms later in the year than most milkweeds and often into September. It grows 1 to 3 feet tall in full sun to partial shade, and in dry, sandy, clayey, or rocky soils. This plant produces small clusters of greenish-white flowers that attract many pollinators, including bees and Monarch butterflies, though it is toxic to livestock.
