Green Comet Milkweed (Asclepias
viridiflora) Of Our Very Own
Walton
County, GA
We knew we had a cluster several Green Comet Milkweed plants.
However, every year, when the plants bloomed, deer would nip the flowers. I’d
gotten to the point that I wasn’t checking the plants any more. So I was
surprised when W told me there were both flowers and seedpods on the plants
this year.
