Last week I noticed butterfly weed was up and today I spotted a number of approx. 4" common milkweed plants. I also have seen some swamp milkweed coming up. It seems early to me, but I would have to check past records. Although we've had a few balmy days, generally it has been more chilly and wet. I have not seen any Monarchs yet, but we are not in the direct flight path and usually reports of lots of egg laying in Indianapolis come long before I see anything here.
