Thanks all!

While not an asclepias... the monarchs sometimes lay eggs on it... and the tussock moths and Milkweed leaf beetle will also eat this milkweed vine...

So... I would have answered yes, sorta...

You might want to search texas mateleas... there are many local varieties and... the carolina type found in my area may not be exactly the variety in your area.
