| Now my Butterflyweed has seeds! Other than adding my name, this photo is SOOC |
I will sow them later when I decide where I want them to grow.
If anyone has any experience growing Butterflyweed from seeds, I would be glad of any advice.
Hope you are having a beautiful day!

Beautiful photographs!
ReplyDeleteI didn't notice any seeds on mine. It would be nice if it has some, becauseI wouldn't mind having some more. That's a very nice photo of the flower and seeds.
ReplyDeleteWhat stunning colours, and beautifully captured. Now I have to look this plant up to see if we have them here. Even the seedheads are pretty.
ReplyDeleteI have never seen this flower before. Multi-coloured beauty. And so love the delicate filaments sprouting from the seeds too.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous shots. I love the seeds.
ReplyDeleteYou have beautiful pictures on your blog! Thanks for visiting mine.
ReplyDeleteButterfly weeds are so pretty. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday
The flower colors are so pretty. I recently realized milkweeds are in the same family as my Hoya vine, the five-pointed flowers are so cool the way they are designed to open by unfolding little triangles from the buds. I have a tiny plant, perhaps next year it will bloom.
ReplyDeleteLovely shots.
ReplyDeleteSOOOOOO beautiful Lea!
ReplyDeleteWe don't have any butterfly weed in England so I can't help you, but it looks lovely - the seeds are wonderfully photogenic!
ReplyDeleteWonderful shots! I also love the seeds!
ReplyDeleteThe blossoms are very pretty but the seeds are just mesmerizing!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful blossoms -- thank you for sharing with us. :)
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful, Lea! They really brightend up my day.
ReplyDeleteCool picture of the seeds. I've never had any luck growing it.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I decided to come find this. It is also called tropical milkweed. This kind grows best in warmer zones. I forgot where you live.
ReplyDeleteImpressive macros, as always!
