I'd been wondering which native milkweeds to grow as I'm not sure what the climate will demand in terms of hardiness. I like Asclepias subulata & may still plant some & hope it makes it through winter. But it's grand to find this one arriving on its own.

You ever meet someone and they change the way you look at the world? Well anyway here are some oleander aphids (Aphis nerii) on desert milkweed (Asclepias subulata) ⁦@tobiaszuest⁩ Disclaimer: these are the only aphids I can ID by sight! But I *can* ID them https://t.co/F4rUT3tsx3
