​Whorled milkweed is a small but pretty little native milkweed. Its greenish-white blooms and leaves are small, but still attractive to the monarchs. It has average water needs, so plant it at the base of your birdbath or where the water pools after a hard rain. It is the most toxic of the milkweeds.
