They look like showy milkweed (A. speciosa) to me.

[edit] Species better in a list

I don't know if anyone is still working on this, but the selected species would be better treated in a new article List of Asclepias species. Anyone interested? Djlayton4 | talk | contribs 02:52, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
