Found Asclepias oenotheroides on our property for the first time. One large and two smaller plants next to each other. Without the flower I likely would not have noticed since growth habit is similar to A. viridis. No Monarch eggs or larvae on it. Did have several Texas Milkweed Beetles (Tetraopes texanus) on it. One is visible (red) on the main stem in the center of this image.

Many A. viridis and three A. asperula nearby.
