Apocynum × floribundum, the intermediate dogbane, is a member of the family Apocynaceae. It is widespread across Canada, the United States, and northern Mexico.

Intermediate dogbane is believed to be of hybrid origin because its characteristics are intermediate between A. cannabinum (dogbane) and A. androsaemifolium (spreading dogbane).
