Last year we had a total of about 20 milkweed up behind our house which is situated on 2.5 acres in rural Ottawa. This year we noticed 11 new plants starting in a new location that gets early morning sun on the edge of our land bordered by Sumac,crab apple trees,wild honeysuckle and a heavily thicketed area. They are now about a foot and a half tall and much more advanced than last years which are just now starting to peak out of grass and rock crevices. Will check for eggs this weekend.
