I've been checking every day for the past few weeks and this morning the Common Milkweed totally out of nowhere sprouted almost an inch over-night. I checked my front rear and side gardens and the same thing everywhere, almost an inch tall. I live in northern New Jersey and the weather has been on a roller coaster here the past month or so Just 5 days ago we had a snow shower and it was in the 30's F and the past few days temps have hovered in the mid 80's F during the day and 60's to 70's at night. Still no sign of the Swamp Milkweed coming up yet, and no Monarchs yet either. Hopefully they'll wait until the Milkweed is ready.
