Locations to find Milkweed

Milkweed grows around bodies of water. The easiest way to recognize it is by knowing it has long stems, large leaves, and is covered in lilac flowers. There are two popular locations to find Milkweed. The first is close to Lakay, just by the river. A lot of this location is muddy and has tons of alligators, so be ready to take them out if you don’t want your horse to get spooked and run away. There are many patches of grass where you will be able to find plants growing along the river.

The second location is a ways past Lagras and closer to Bluewater Marsh. Yet again, this is a muddy place with a lot of alligators so come prepared. You will also be surprised at how many things you’ll find along the way to stop, pick up, and collect. Do take it easy as the mud is harder for your horse to walk through.

Milkweed is not a common plant, so you will need to do a bit more searching for it than you might have planned. It is always a good idea to grab all the plants in the game as you come across them. After all, you never know when you might need them out in the wild or for a daily quest in Red Dead Online.
