Hello...
I am looking for any Asclepias seeds OTHER THAN from these species... can anyone help me out?
Asclepias asperula
Asclepias curassavica
Asclepias exaltata

Milkweed/Asclepias seeds?
You might try the butterfly/hummers forum. That is a good place for these!
Thanks kaykay... I will do that! :)

Jeff,
Wow! I've only checked on the west coast varieties that will be of use to my monarchs here, apparently I'd better research and see if any of those are good for my cats.
Sherry
oh my Lord! i never in my wildest dreams would have thought there were so many. are there any red milkweeds other than scarlet which is really orange? which of those are yellow? i will be checking plant pictures for days now. what fun. new plant s to discover. thank you.

and the search has begun.
Hi mamajack - you're welcome... though, I'm not sure if the thank you is sarcastic or not. :)
Anyway, I don't know if any of them are truly red or yellow. They are mostly whites, pinks, creams and greens.
Thanks,
God bless,
Jeff
mamajack,
Are you looking for yellow? I have some yellow if you'd like some.
Sherry
well, jeff, i'm not sure either. lol. this was salvia year and fuchsia year and hosta year and now it's milkweed year. lol.
SHERRY, yes i want some yellow ones. which is the yellow one? is it the obovata one? lmk what you want in trade. thanks for the offer. barb
mamajack,
Right now I have some asclepias tuberosa (yellow) left. I'm usually open to anything in trade, but an sasbe will work also.
I'm in the address exchange.
Sherry
