asclepias
We found this pod full of seeds and white fuzz on our playground! The seeds seem to be connected to the fuzz. The outside of the pod is green.
We found it on the playground. There are a lot of open fields around our playground.
We are member of a curious second grade class who would love to know more about this pod!

This is the seed pod of a milkweed (Asclepias sp.) - hard to tell which species.

If you go to this site and type asclepias into the field, you'll get a page with a lot of different species. Good luck!
