The milkweed plant is an upright specimen that may reach 2 to 6 feet. Leaves grow from a thick stalk and are large and green, taking on a reddish color as the plant matures.
The propagation rhizome of A. syriaca grows about one inch deep. With young common milkweed, I cut a big circle around the plant, then go deep, and take out the whole mass. I pulled up about 3 feet of the rhizome and coiled it up in a flower pot with potting soil resulting in a vigorous lush milkweed bush.f we were to buy any new milkweeds, we would look for plants grown from seeds responsibly collected in our own region. An aside: We wish nurseries would offer six-packs of small milkweed plants rather than large, pricey single plants.
