The Mexican milkweed, swamp milkweed or soldier's milkweed is a shrub with attractive and fragrant flowers that also attract Monarch butterflies, making it an ideal plant for gardens and balconies. These butterflies lay their eggs on it, and the caterpillars feed on the plant. Its flowers vary in color, from dark purple to soft pink, although white-flowered varieties can also be found.

The species Asclepias incarnata belongs to the genus Asclepias, which includes around 150 species. Specifically, Mexican milkweed originates in North America, but it can also be found in northern Africa.

Swamp milkweed can reach between 100 and 150 cm in height, with thick, fleshy, white-colored roots. These roots are adapted to thrive in dense, moist soils with low oxygen levels. It is usually found growing wild along the edges of ponds, streams, and lakes. Its leaves are green, narrow, elongated, and pointed at the tip.
