I was surprised to see the milkweed in my back yard is up about four inches in height when I checked tonight. It has several leaves clustered at the top. Last week and the previous week when I checked it was just at ground level. It has been so cold here that I am sure that is delaying it. It has turned cold again this afternoon and is about fifty degrees with a strong cold wind. Earlier in the morning it had been warm and pleasant. Lets hope the monarchs stay south until it warms up.
