Swan Plant
A few weeks ago I posted a mystery plant and asked if anyone could identify it for me.
http://365project.org/onewing/365/2019-08-10
A few people identified it as a Swan Plant and looking through some old photos today I found this shot and I can see how it got the name.
Maybe it is just me, but it does look rather like a swan.

This is very good focus and I have to admit - we did grow swan plants but the monarchs decimated them before they got to this stage! fav

Fantastoc close-up capture. So much detail. Not sure you can go in the tower. I didn't see anybody trying while I was there.

They look so much like our milkweeds, but they look like a different type of milkweed. Yours does look like a swan.

Like others have said it looks very much like our milkweed with some differences. The biggest being that our milkweed does not look like a swan. Good shot!

Thanks, but it isn't autumn. I live in Australia and September here is Spring in the southern hemisphere.

Lovely picture! I'm using the "PictureThis-App" on my phone. It works really well (I could even use it for your picture) and if you take the basic version it is free.
