Milkweed (FIRST sighted)

Date: 03/04/2012

Number: 1

The first native milkweed plants (Asclepius viridis) are coming up in our pastures. We had some good rainfalls this Jan. and Feb., helping out after the terrible drought last year. Everything is green and many early wildflowers are blooming. One of the monarch's favorite nectar plants is the tiny white False Garlic flower of the Lily family (Northoscordum bivalve) and they are blooming abundantly -- now we just await the beautiful monarchs!
