The swamp milkweed was probably up last weekend, but common milkweed just came up the past few days in gardens. Butterfly weed is just starting to poke through the soil too. This is much later than in previous years. We have had much colder spring than normal, but the past three days have been warm (70s). The common milkweed seeds that I planted in the school prairie that we are starting just started emerging this week.
