On the Texas milkweed trail today, we ventured southeastern Calhoun County (Texas) where we found Asclepias oenotherides up with good growth. Plants with stems up to seven inches, some plants with three and four stems, best coverage was eight plants in a square meter. Also checked out the overwintering population of Monarchs in Port O'Connor, saw five, got close to two, one very faded (as if it had flown in from Mexico) and the other with moderate fade. Large number of Robins still around. Photos for ID'ing: http://asclepias.homestead.com/oenotheroides03.html
