I picked up one of these, a Swamp Milkweed, and New York Ironweed. Was planning on planting in back along woodland edge and the deer chomped almost all leaves from the NY and was starting on the Joe Pye. Moved back to front bed but not as much light there, hoping they take and the NY bounces back!
Question: is what you're showing in the video a single plant? Trying to work out how many to get this spring - how many I'll need to fill a space, and how much space I'll need to plant more than one. Thanks for the video!

Beautiful! Can it be grown in zone 6a/6b?
They should be fine in those zones.

I've battled the deer myself. Mostly in the winter.
So, how to prune & prep it for winter?! Thanks.
Sun or shade is important to mention?,
Will this grow in full sun thanks
It can handle full sun with some water here and there.

It was one plant initially bit they tend to form a clump as they mature and get established.
how old is the plant in the video?
When the video was made it was about 2 years old.
