The milkweed is up in Central New York! We have had a week of clear skies and warm weather. The A. syriaca is up this morning about 1-2 inches. Even more significant to my garden are the rare and endangered species I am trying to grow. Last fall I lined out a couple of hundred 4” pots with commercial potting soil and planted seed in them. The idea being that these will over winter outside and be naturally stratified. These new seedlings are also just poking out yesterday. Germination looks excellent!
