A week ago today (April 22), while working in the SC Botanical Garden's butterfly garden in Clemson, we discovered that we had lots of asclepias coming up in and beyond "the patch". Some were about 6" high, others were just breaking through. Should have checked the previous week while we were working. We've had an unusual spring with cooler than normal temps and more rain.
In checking our garden in Six Mile, we discovered that our milkweed is coming up, too. When I uncovered the leaves off the pots I had over-wintered, found that several of them had sprouts coming up, too.
