It is grown as an annual in cooler climates, but it has a much longer flowering period than the other winter-hardy varieties of perennial milkweeds. Tropical Milkweed tolerates growing in large containers and is a low-maintenance milkweed variety that performs well on dry sites that have clay, sand, loam or average soils.
