Common milkweed can be distinguished from swamp milkweed by its larger and wider seed pods. The seed pods on swamp milkweed can be seen terminally on the plant as opposed to common milkweed where the seed pods can be seen all over the plant. Also to triple check, make sure that the milkweed is growing in a mesic area and not a wet area during the growing season.
