Hi. I recently discovered this beautiful flower called the "Calotropis Gigantea [Crown Flower]". http://www.flickr.com/photos/janmorris/377479983/in/set-72157594484092110/ I would love to plant one of these shrubs in my yard but I live in Wisconsin and I'm unsure how well it would come back after the winter months. Does anyone have any idea if it would re-grow again in the Spring/Summer time? Any info. is appreciated! ^___^
Too tender for Wisconsin. http://toptropicals.com/catalog/uid/CALOTROPIS_GIGANTEA.htm Maybe you would be happy with another milkweed with similar flowers, try looking under Asclepias - perhaps there is even one native there that has attributes you are looking for.
