Showy milkweed is a coarse perennial up to four feet tall. The light-green leaves are oval to nearly round, opposite each other, and may be over six inches long. About ten to twenty flowers grow in a cluster from white-wooly stalks radiating from a central point. Milkweeds are known to be toxic to livestock and domestic fowl, but usually under conditions of forced ingestion of large quantities through mismanagement or drought.
