I have had over-wintering monarchs here in ZipCode 77068. ( I am almost exactly 30 degrees north latitude).
I had flowers on milkweeds into January.
Currently I have three chrysalises hanging on my eaves and another four or five elsewhere in the yard. There are also three adults, at least one male and two females that I believe hatched here last week. I have eggs and one-inch caterpillars. Adults are feeding on wild cherry, salvias, Thunbergia vine, red honeysuckle and crossvine. Actually, they will sniff anything and try any flower.
