I see what you mean. Milkweed leaves grow right from the main stem.
Mmmmmm, me likes pecans.

Now I am wondering if I made a very bad decision...until the subject of milkweek came up, I told DH to take the clippers and cut off the saplings and he did using his muscles....
Now did I just know down a good plant 
or did I get rid of an unwanted tree?

I have a weed that looks just like the top photos, it grows by Mom's and when it gets big my brother just cuts it down and of course it comes back. The stem is reddish, the leaves come straight off the stem until it reaches the top, then they branch,and it makes a flower stalk that stands straight up with little white flowers up and down the flower stalk. Wish I could get a pic but something is wrong with DD's camera cord. The leaves are identical. Pretty weed though.
