We have quite the abundance of Monarchs in Winnipeg this year and it seems all of the native species here are all flying around I even seen a tiger swallotail besides the black,enough about that,I thought our milkweed didn't survive our warm fall. so I had to get some more,bought more and put those in the ground pulled some more weeds and lo and behold there they were tiny but there,pulled more weeds so the soil would soak up the heat,that was this past Monday fed them with miracle grow,Wednesday maybe 6 inches were up and I saw Monarch eggs on those tiny plants, so I started flipping leaves on the new plants and the eggs were there too, Wednesday's temp.was28 celsius humdex 31c today 28c humidex 33c perfect Monarch breeding weather if this weather holds through to summer WE should see numbers of Monarchs like We did in 2006 this will definately increase these wonders of nature's numbers,thats all for now Monarch Lovers.
