Found the first egg in my garden this evening after seeing the 1st monarch in my yard this afternoon. The egg is on a flower bud of Silky Milkweed (Asclepias syriaca). I also have Dwarf and Swamp Milkweed in my garden (A. ovalifolica and A incarnata). My yard is in a dense urban area, yet monarchs find the milkweed plants every year.
