My milkweed has never died back this year, it has grown all winter long. In fact, I've had overwintering Monarchs all winter long as well with my last butterfly hatching in mid-February. I trimmed back the plants to promote a fresher growth so I should have a good supply by the time the Monarchs pass through my garden in a couple of weeks. I also still have flowers blooming so the nectar supply is also still in place and we've had plenty of rain. This should bide well for our migrating friends, they are truly welcome in my garden.
