As someone who has now tried twice to grow polkweed for dye/ink/crafting purposes and been thwarted both times... I feel this. :D
(Lots of Osange orange around here; come and get it. How nifty to think that silkworms will eat it - you'd think if they hate American mulberry, an even more distant relative would be equally unwelcome, but who can fathom the mind of a moth-to-be, I guess!)
Personally, when it comes to insects I would like to raise orchid mantises and blue morpho butterflies. Maybe one day!
