attributes draw networkx

Im using networkx for visualization. I see when I use the function draw_networkx_edge_labels I can retrieve the labels for edges.

I want to print the attribute on node ( instead of the label).. try everything almost . still stuck. If i have 5 attributes per node, is there anyway I can print a specific attribute on each node ? For example, if a car node has attributes: size, price, company, .. I want to print the size of the car on each node ?

Don't know whether can output this on graph.

You can do it by specifying the labels= keyword 

import pylab
import networkx as nx
G=nx.Graph()
G.add_node('Golf',size='small')
G.add_node('Hummer',size='huge')
G.add_edge('Golf','Hummer')
labels = nx.get_node_attributes(G, 'size') 
nx.draw(G,labels=labels,node_size=1000)
pylab.show()
