5/05/07: Saw the first small leaves of common milkweed in my garden. It seems to be lagging behind last year. This year has been very dry.

5/13/07: Above milkweed plant about 9" tall and fairly small leaves.

5/14/07: Visited a nature center in Maplewood. The common milkweed on the south side of a building was two feet tall and already had 5 monarch eggs - probably laid on Mother's day - how appropriate.
