I am trying to get some of the Milkweeds that have the larger, fatter leafs. I am only looking for a few different types of the Acclepias (spelling). If you think you have what I am looking for, let me know. A picture of leaf and flower would help. I know there are a couple of really large type, kinda like tree's, these are on my wish list. I think one is even called Gigantea or something like that. All I have to trade are some really fresh Passiflora Platyloba seeds. Mine are germinating like crazy right now.
thanks,
Mark
Looking for the harder to get, Milkweed seeds
Mark, we have a large leafed variety that grows here that I got seeds from this fall here's a couple of pics. These are very fragrant.
Here's another shot of it. Let me know if you are interested.

And the pods. I take them to the flower shop. they look great in dried arrangements.
The leaves can get fairly big, bigger than my hand.

What is the name/variety of the one you have?

BjsBloomers, have any extra to trade?
Whoops, I have that. I think what you have there is Showy Milkweed. Asclepias speciosa.
