Description
I love the silky tufts that transport the milkweed seeds to new locations. I think they would be wonderful in handmade paper or spun into some kind of fiber. The milkweed plant plays a big role in the survival of the Monarch butterfly. The flowers smell fabulous. I love this plant.
Asclepias speciosa is a milky-sapped perennial plant in the dogbane family, known commonly as the showy milkweed, and is found in the Western half of North America. Wikipedia
Scientific name: Asclepias speciosa
Rank: Species
