Received word today that the Asclepias perennis (shore milkweed) near the George Observatory in Brazos Bend State Park, Fort Bend County (30 miles south-southwest of Houston)was up about one foot. No inflorescences, but they could appear this week and be blooming by April. These milkweeds supported some early monarch larvae last spring. http://asclepias.homestead.com/perennis.html
Several reports of multiple sightings of monarchs by students in the Victoria area yesterday.
