If you really want some unusual milkweeds, check out Seneca Hill Perennials. They carry quite a few unusual varieties.

Here is a link that might be useful: Seneca Hill Perennials

I have swamp milkweed, Aesclepsia incarnata seeds. I believe these come from plants that originate from either New England Wildflower Soc. or Boston Natural Areas Network's City Natives nursery.

I also have common milkweed, Aesclepsia syriaca seeds. These come from wild plants that grew from seeds that originate in the beautiful White Mountains of New Hampshire.

I'm not familiar with the process here but I suppose if you send along self addressed stamped envelope I can send them along to you

I will say that if there is a possibility that these might go wild you probably should find seed sources from your locality. Ideally you'd want to get the genotype from your locality, not just the general phenotype of these species as North American natives. This will preserve the long evolved integrity of your local species.

Thank-you. I already have those Milkweeds. Does anyone else have some. Seneca Hill Perennials only sells plants and there shipping is expensive, but I'd love the Milkweeds they have for my garden in my acre backyard.

RE: WANTED: Milkweeds

I am still looking for Milkweeds. I will take even just like five of a species that I do not have.
