I missed the emerging of our milkweed so I thought it was too late to record our observation. My estimated emergence is April 10.

I have attached a picture of our butterfly weed in our pollinator garden. It has set blooms and the plant at its highest stem is 14 inches. I forgot to take a measuring stick.

Also, I attached a picture of our pinewoods milkweed. It has set a few blooms. The highest stem is 6 inches. AND I attached a picture of a Monarch caterpillar using the Pinewoods Milkweed from years past. This plant is VERY popular with Monarchs and attracts them each year. (I thought I had a picture from last year.) These plants are in a more sandy, less plant populated field so they are easy to spot.

I DID NOT FIND ANY MONARCH EGGS.
