Re: PESO: My Pots of Weed
Dan -- Have to do a bit of advertising here :-) "take me to your milkweed" https://www.cafepress.com/annsanstuff/5685588 The shirt originally said "got milkweed?" but had to be changed because the California Dairy Assoc. pounced (their ad campaign "got milk"was onwhen I first listed the items a few years ago.. sigh. I think I'd still get in trouble if I changed it back. The link above is to my shop listing... the shirt is also in the general marketplace on cafe pressand even though it isn't constant, I do keep making a few sales. I never recognized milkweed in its flowering stage.. its very pretty! - The second photo, even with the frame-clipped leaves is very nice. ann On 6/25/2018 1:32 PM, Daniel J.

Re: PESO: My Pots of Weed
Looks rather different to our Milkweed *(Asclepias*fruticosa) which is the foodplant of local Monarch species. Cannabis is widely grown here - illegally of course. We even found the holy weed in our Church garden! Alan C On 25-Jun-18 07:32 PM, Daniel J. Matyola wrote: Thanks for looking, Alan.
