The bicolor sure looks right, but I thought A.curassavica, did not die back during the winter, and mine died back pretty early, though it did hang in there for a while. Seems there is some concern over it overwintering, and it is suggested it be cut back, but that was not necessary for mine.
The seeds were given to me, and she was also given the seeds. It seems A. curassavica is the only commercially available Asclepias available
so I guess it very well good be.
