Butterflyweed, composite images of flowers, pods
and seeds. . .(Asclepias tuberosa).
The pods shown
above right are ripening at present. It's an amazing almost surreal
transformation, from flower to developing
seedpod, which bear no relationship in outward form. (Only one flower per
cluster is pollinated.)
Native to North America.
