Seeds of butterfly weed, Asclepias tuberosa, photographed in situ. This orange-flowered milkweed is not invasive here. It also isn't toxic enough to protect monarch caterpillars from their prey. Monarch butterflies will stop for nectar on the flower but will not lay eggs, given a better alternative.
