Do you grow this yourself? It's beautiful!

There's no link to the PDB for this flower...is that an error? I guess I'll ask.

I do like the flowers on that-they're different from regular Aschlepias. Gorgeous!

I used to grow it...it didn't come back this year. There is a "wildflower meadow" in the town where I work and this plant grows all over in there. I now admire it in its own habitat...

This is just breathtaking!
I've got Milkweed Envy now (lol).
If it happens to produce more seeds than you can use...
... I promise to give them a good home ; )

(seriously.. LMK if you'd like to do a trade.)

If I can collect some seeds for you I will. These plants grow in a meadow in the town I work in. It's been too wet and buggy to get back there to see what's blooming. I'm so afraid I'll go by one day to find the area being developed
