Status of milkweed in Texas: commonly planted in our south Texas gardens, "Mexican Milkweed" was hit really hard by 27-28 degree F. early March, lasting 3 days. I live IH 35 at FM 1103, 21 miles north of downtown San Antonio. Can't tell yet if my tuberosa/Mx. Milkweed has survived. Roadsides are lush with grass; bluebonnets began blooming two weeks ago. Consequently it's hard to see native milkweed but am always looking. I live in Northcliffe,a golf course community stretching a mile along IH 35. I see, virtually daily, this route into and including downtown San Antonio, Alamo grounds, and SA River. Regards, Joanne Wells, Western Guadalupe County, Texas, IH 35 x FM 1103.
