Amazing what a little sunshine will do! Showy milkweed has at last emerged, and shooting up almost an inch a day. Most people arround here don't know of the flowering properties of milkweeds, but Butterfly weed is sprouting in the few flowerbeds that have some. Now, if only a monarcch or two would hurry north and find our milkweed! It goes completely un-used most years (except for milkweed bugs and aphids)
