I love my garden with the birds, lizard and fishponds. Roses Broms Orchids Heliconia veggies and now into Succulents and would like to know the names.

Help me identify this plant please #plantid @Muzz67 @brightcolours it came up in my native garden. I think I've seen it before.

@lovestogarden so I should pull it out Janice?
No! Well, unless you don't want it. That is just the common name for it. They are the plant that is the sole food for Monarch Butterflies. Check this site out: https://www.joyfulbutterfly.com/milkweed-plant-for-monarchs/. I grow them. I think they are beautiful.
@lovestogarden thanks Janice.
My pleasure. 😀
Good article on attracting butterflies. "This milk weed (Tropical Milk Weed, Asclepias curassavica) is actually a host plant for the Monarch Butterfly. The butterfly will come in and it will lay one egg underneath, just like that and then it will go off and it will come around and it will lay one here and then on the same day, they’ll all hatch at the same time.” www.abc.net.au/gardening/stories/s3805878.htm
