This gallery contains photos of native wildflowers that I only had one image of each. Eventually I may categorize differently (suggestions are welcome).

Asclepias tuberosa, aka Butterfly Weed or Orange Milkplant with Phaon Crescent Butterflies in the Ocala National Forest
Butterfly Weed is a tuberous-rooted perennial that grows throughout Florida. Along with other milkweeds, it is a host plant for Queen, Monarch and other butterflies. As seen here, it is obviously also a great nectaring plant. We came upon this small lone plant alongside a road in the Ocala National Forest where it was the main event for these two butterflies. I have no experience with it so far beyond that, but stay tuned.
