Common milkweed, that I transplanted into my garden several years ago from along a road where they mow it down all summer, was up an inch out of the ground on Sunday 4/21. By Wednesday, 4/24, it was more than 4 inches tall.
Transplanted it to a pot on Sunday because the runners were outside my garden border and would have been mowed down-and friends asked for some starts of the plant. Transplanting Common milkweed can be very successful if you know that the roots go sideways instead of down.
