I have not noticed Milkweed growing wild in my area, but I was able to purchase some native milkweed seedlings (Common & Swamp) this past weekend (05/04/14) at a local Springtime Native Plant Sale that was run by Earth Sangha's Wild Plant Nursery in Springfield, VA. Both of my milkweed plants are very small and young, but I was told that I should be able to transplant them within a week or so since I do container gardening. As of this afternoon my Swamp Milkweed sprouts are just 3" tall and my Common Milkweed seedlings are just about 2" tall, but I've got about 10 plants worth!
