| I have this plant growing in my garden for more than a year. Initially I picked it up along the road.
Recently it blooms. I wonder if it's a milkweed plant?
Many thanks for your inputs. Xuan |

| Looks like milkweed flower to me. On the Butterfly weed the leaves are narrow. Looks like yours are, but hard to tell. |
