I haven't grown it in a container, but it has along tap root, so I'd make sure it was a deep pot if you chose to do so. This one is not a runner, nice clumper so no invasiveness with this like common milkweed.

I've had problems with milkweed aphids the past couple of years. I think that has a lot to do with the drought, as I never had them before. I think if they are healthy, they are less susceptible. I mostly just hose them off.

They flower nicely, but the repeat bloom is not as prolific.
there are three different varieties in this picture.
